Gary Moore

A broken heart that just wan't mend

Is the price you pay

It's hard to take when love grows old

The days are long and the nights turn cold

When it fades away

You hope that she will change your mind

But the days drift on and on

You'll never know the reason why she's gone.

Everybody knows what the blues is all about.

It's a pain you can't live with.

It's a woman you can't live without.

Could have cried me a river

when they told me the news.

On that day was a story of the blues.

My baby she left me, my baby she's gone.

My sweet little angel

has spread her wings and flown.

Can't think of a reason for going on.

From this day I will play the blues.

All alone,

In the empty rooms

Loneliness is your only friend

Oh, she is gone

And you're empty...

They say a broken heart

can always mend.

Time is the healer and sadness will end.

But I've done so much crying,

when will I laugh again?

Till that day I will play the blues.

I found that love is more than just a game,

Play and to win -

but you lose just the same.

If I ever leave you,

Well, you can say I told you so.

And if I ever hurt you, baby,

You know I hurt myself as well.

If I ever leave you,

Well, you can say I told you so.

And if I ever hurt you, baby,

You know I hurt myself as well.
