Singing I'm Blue
Melanie Safka
This time I'm paying my dues while everybody's watching
This time I'm rocking the soul of an all-night pain
And this time I'm riding them out and I'm waiting 'em through
But this time I'm singing I'm blue
Singing I'm blue
Sometimes, time just a word when your world stands still
Most times I don't understand it, maybe I never will
But this time I did it for love, and loving is strife
But this time I'm playing for life
Playing for life
Some day a day will come when I finally know which way
To hold on tight while I'm letting go
But meantime, I'll play away by the things I do
And this time I'm singing I'm blue
Singing I'm blue
I'm singing I'm blue
Ah-ah-ah singing I'm blue...
Ah-ah singing I'm blue
Ah-ah-ah singing I'm blue...
Ah-ah-ah, a-ha singing I'm blue...
Ah-ah-ah singing I'm blue...
This time I'm paying my dues while everybody's watching
This time I'm rocking the soul of an all-night pain
And this time I'm riding them out and I'm waiting 'em through
But this time I'm singing I'm...(whistle)
This time I'm singing I'm blue
