The Bye Bye Blackbirds - These Blues Lyrics

The Bye Bye Blackbirds – These Blues Lyrics

Roll the sun back to you
Cast a spell on all you’ve owned
Nothing means much to you
Nothing you can’t drink alone

So listen before your time
Listen to all your lives
‘Cause you’ve spent a fortune in rhyme

There’s a river runs there
Where there’s fog on haunted ground
Steel and autumn live there
Leaving traces in the ground

There’s a letter for you
In a mail truck somewhere
Some discarded future
Sent from here to nowhere

These blues
Swirling like the snow and then
These blues
Spinning like the stars and then
These blues
Breaking all our hearts again
These blues
