And even why I've laid the telephone to rest
I sit and wonder when we spoke who said it best
I wish I were upon a bird that's flyin' west
And little things like love and softness in your eyes
Would help me rest
Is there a way to sing the blues
A way to win, a way to lose
And down befallen goes, and graves that leaves
Are days away from home
Still the time returns to play
Although I told her that you're gone
Still that sweet burden
Take me where we both belong
And then I'll tell you 'bout our love
And how it turned into a song
Is there a way to sing the blues
A way to win, a way to lose
Is there a way to sing the blues
Understanding comes to those
Who take the time to wonder why
Face the truth and just to know
What you can do with open eyes
Sometimes you're feeling
Like no life can justify
You're on you own
You can't lay down, you pack your case
And write your feelings in the sky
Is there a way to sing the blues
A way to win, a way to lose
Is there a way to sing the blues
Is there a way to sing the blues
A way to win, a way to lose
I found a way to sing the blues
Without the pain of knowing why
I write my feelings on the sky
In the sky
Oh I found a way to sing the blues
I found a way to sing the blues
A way to win, a way to lose
And even when I laid the telephone to rest
