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 you always answer, fix it in bed.

I’m not saying that we didn’t do right. >It's just our shadows avoided the light.
It’s not good, if we start keeping score, this kind of love’s not for me anymore.
I am sure, you don’t know how I feel
I am sure you don’t care how I feel.

Since I left this, I’m searching my mind, >Where did I go, when I left you behind?
It’s all about you, and that such a bore >Got no regrets wanting just a little bit more. 
All that you wanted wasn’t enough >You’re out the door when the goin’ get rough
All I can say now, and let me be clear, >Your brand of kindness’s pushed me out of here.

I’m not saying that we didn’t do right. >It's just our shadows avoided the light.
It's not good, if we start keeping score, this kind of love’s not for me anymore.
I am sure, you don’t know how I feel
I am sure you don’t care how I feel.

There is something strange about feeling the blues, >When even laughter feels like getting bad news.
You said things happen, some can be for the best. >My heart is waiting for some love, more or less.
So Yes, I’m tired of trying to open some 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 to the light. 
All I can say now, and let me be clear, >I have to stand up and walk out of here. 
Who wants to be at home with the blues, but >I’m sick and tired of hearing your views.

No use regretting what we didn’t do right. >How strange, our shadows avoided the light
It’s never fun to put love to a test, >So all the best to you,  I’ll give my heart a rest.
