Original Blues song Singing The Blues. By Gary Crockett.
Transcript
00:00Woke up this morning, feeling heavy in my soul
00:16Sunlight creeping through the blinds, but it don't make me whole
00:25Heart's been breaking, since the day you said goodbye
00:35Now I'm here alone, singing low, and wondering why
00:47Each note I play, it cuts just like a knife
00:55These blues have wrapped me tight, they're my only type of life
01:05The streets are talking, but they don't hear my song
01:17Echoes of sweet memories, but I just can't sing along
01:24Late nights on the porch, raising a glass to the stars
01:34But the laughter fades away, leaving nothing but these scars
01:44I feel the rhythm deep, dragging me down low
01:54These blues, they're my companions
01:59They're all I've come to know
02:03Singing the blues, with every tear I cry
02:12A melody of heartache, reaching for the sky
02:22Playing my sorrow, strumming on my pain
02:32Singing the blues, like a soft summer rain
02:41I found an old guitar
03:06Covered in dust and dreams
03:10Covered in dust and dreams
03:11Each chord a reflection
03:15Of my silent screams
03:20Searching for solace, in this empty crowded room
03:30But every note I play, just brings back the gloom
03:40I recall the memories, like shadows cast in light
03:50I recall the memories, like shadows cast in light
03:52These bittersweet blues, keep me awake at night
04:00But through the darkness, there's a flicker of hope
04:11These songs I'm singing, they help me call
04:18Pour another whiskey, let the spirits flow
04:29In the depths of despair, that's where the truth can grow
04:38I stand up tall, though my heart feels small
04:48With this music as my armor, I can face it all
04:58Singing the blues, with every tear I cry
05:07A melody of heartache, reaching for the sky
05:16Playing my sorrow, strumming on my pain
05:28Singing the blues, like a soft summer rain
05:36Time keeps moving, but my heart feels the same
05:46These blues are a fire
05:50But I'm scorched by the flame
05:56Yet I find my solace
06:01In the sound of my voice
06:05Singing the blues, oh
06:11It's my only choice
06:15And though the world may turn
06:20I'll keep playing my part
06:25With every verse and chorus
06:30I'll mend this broken heart
06:34So here's to the struggle
06:39And the stories we choose
06:44In the shadows and the light
06:48I'll keep singing the blues
06:53I'll lose my heart a little lighter
06:57As I walk down this road
07:03With each strum of my guitar
07:08I lighten my load
07:12Oh, I'll keep on singing it
07:17Until the dawn breaks through
07:21With the voice of my soul
07:28I'll keep singing the blues
07:30That I can sing the blues
07:32I'll keep singing the blues
07:34I'll keep singing the blues
08:12Aum.
