All the years combine, they melt into a dream
A broken angel sings from a guitar
In the end there's just a song, comes crying up the night
Through all the broken dreams and vanished years
Stella blue, Stella blue
When all the cards are down, there's nothing left to see
There's just the pavement left and broken dreams
In the end there's still that song comes cryin' like the wind
Down every lonely street that's ever been
Stella blue, Stella blue
I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel
Can't win for trying
Dust off those rusty strings just one more time
Gonna make them shine, shine
It all rolls into one and nothing comes for free
There's nothing you can hold for very long
And when you hear that song come crying like the wind
It seems like all this life was just a dream
Stella blue, Stella blue
