Learnin' the Blues

[00:00.840]	The tables are empty,
[00:06.580]	The dance floor deserted,
[00:13.640]	You play the same love song,
[00:19.920]	It’s the tenth time you’ve heard it.
[00:26.80]
[00:26.860]	That’s the beginning,
[00:33.500]	Just one of the clues,
[00:40.830]	You’ve had your first lesson,
[00:46.790]	In learnin’ the blues.
[00:52.600]
[00:54.820]	The cigarettes you light,
[00:58.480]	One after the other,
[01:05.740]	Won’t help you forget him,
[01:12.770]	When your losing your lover.
[01:20.39]
[01:21.930]	You’re only burning,
[01:27.80]	A torch you can’t lose,
[01:34.0]	But you’re on the right track,
[01:40.150]	For learnin’ the blues.
[01:47.630]
[01:48.890]	When you’re out in a crowd,
[01:54.539]	The blues will taunt you constantly,
[02:00.280]	When you’re out in a crowd,
[02:07.350]	The blues will haunt your memory.
[02:13.660]
[02:16.90]	The nights when you don’t sleep,
[02:22.310]	The whole night you’re cryin’,
[02:28.530]	But you can not forget him,
[02:34.829]	Soon you even stop tryin’,
[02:40.600]
[02:43.0]	You’ll walk the floor,
[02:48.860]	And wear out your shoes,
[02:55.770]	When you feel your heart break,
[03:01.700]	You're learnin’ the blues.
