Abby’s Blues

KEY: E Minor

You say you love me, spare me those lies. >I get the story from a look in your eyes.
You don’t remember, and I can’t forget, >What we started when we first met.

You say tomorrow, never today >Is that my life that I see slipping away?
I sit and wonder about things that you said.  >Seems your answer’s always, fix it in bed.

I’m not saying that you didn’t do right. >Just that your shadow avoided the light.
It’s not good, when we start keeping score, this kind of love is not for me anymore.

I am sure I don’t know how you feel.
I am sure you don’t care how I feel.

Since I left this, I’ve been searching my mind, >Where did I go when I left you behind?
It’s all about you, and that‘s such a bore >Got no regrets about wanting much more.

Instrumental 4-8 beats

All you wanted, I wasn’t enough >You’re out the door when the goin’ get rough
What I can say now, and let me be clear, >Your brand of kindness ran me out of here.

I’m not saying that I didn’t do right. >It's just my shadow avoiding the light.
It's not good, if I start keeping score, this kind of love is not for me anymore.

I am sure I don’t know how you feel
I am sure you don’t care how I feel.

Who wants to end up at home with the blues, >When even laughter feels like getting bad news.
You say things happen, some can be for the best. >My heart is waiting for some love—more or less.
I’m sick with trying to open locked doors >I don’t want that kind of love anymore

I’m not sayin’ that we didn’t do right. >Our shadows knew when they came out in the light.
All I can say now, and let me be clear, >I’ve got to stand up and walk out of here.

I’m sick and tired of your empty views.> It’s very strange, this having the blues.
No use regretting what we didn’t do right.> Strange that our shadows avoided the light.

It’s never fun to put love to the test, >As for me I’m giving my heart a rest.
