the snows are melting
the river's on the rise
i'm looking for shelter
there's not a place to hide
the wind is whipping like i never seen before
bearing down like a freight train just outside my door
the blues keep coming
i can't stop them anymore
the blues keep coming
i can't stop them anymore
cut loose and set adrift
a million miles of dust
on deserted roads and rusted skied
years of fading hope and trust
a thousand shouting voices now a distant roar
i'm left here in this darkness these many miles from shore
the blues keep coming
i can't stop them anymore
the blues keep coming
i can't stop them anymore
in my dreams it's a long long way to heaven
i see an angel floating in the sky
in my prayers when it's two shades south of midnight
give me wings that i might fly
a telling lie with unforgiving days
and if i threw the dice i would've lost them anyway
now i need that angel to hold me tight
give me some lovin'
help me make it through just one more night
the blues keep coming
i can't stop them anymore
the blues keep coming
i can't stop them anymore
