the blues keep coming

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
