Love In Blue

Love In Blue - Gordon


I listen every evening
To songs both old and new
Hoping to hear some words to say to you
But I never found the right ones
-- Nothing sounded true
Until I wrote to you in midnight blue

I've heard the cheeky hip-hop pop
That mix bad words with dance
An' I have seen the disco floors
Where people move in trance
I've heard the city cowboys
Sing a long lost love lament
An' I've been with rockin' rebels
Rolling out their discontent

I've seen the bangled buskers sell
Their plastic hearts for gold
An' I've known a dusky minstrelle
Curse the passion in her soul
While croonin' tunes of misty moons
Until the tears get overdue
An' I see the face I can't erase
An' all my thoughts return to you

I've heard the songs that say the words
" I gotta leave you, babe "
As if a shadow of true love
Could forever masquerade
So where's the words I'm listening for
To make you love me too?
The words to cut you like I'm cut
To show you love in blue...

I listen every evening
To songs both old and new
It's dangerous and so unwise
To dwell upon your face and eyes
An' talk to you when day is through
Forever seeking words more true
But I don't know what else to do
To hold onto the memory
Of you ― my love in blue
... ... ...
