Katie Melua - Learnin' The Blues lyrics

rate me

The tables are empty - the dance floor's deserted

You play the same love song - it's the tenth time you've heard it

That's the beginning - just one of the clues

You've had your first lesson - in learnin' the blues

The cigarettes you light - one after another

Won't help you forget him - when you're losing your lover

You're only burning - a torch you can't lose

But you're on the right track - for learnin' the blues

When you're out in a crowd, the blues will taunt you - constantly

When you're out in a crowd, the blues will haunt your memory

The nights when you don't sleep - the whole night you're crying

You just can't forget him - soon you even stop trying

You'll walk the floor - and wear out your shoes

When you feel your heart break - you're learnin' the blues
