I could never write a love song
I could never write a blues song
When I'm in love I am a lover
But I have always had the blues
I am afraid that no one sees me
What will they say when I am gone
It occurs to me I think I miss you
I think I've missed you all along
Out of the corner of my eye (out of the corner of my eye)
Not sure that I should think these things of you
Is it the wrong place, at the wrong time
I think it's just my turn to lose
Thoughts of you can give me smile lines
I laugh myself to sleep because I knew (I knew)
We were talking 'bout a fine line
It depends on who you're talkin' to
If it's any consolation
The blues have always had me too
And if I ever write a love song
I think I'll write it about you
