Blues Anthem - Jimmy Page

If I cannot be so happy without you, my dear

If I cannot hold you close, every second that you’re here

You must know I can’t go on, every time I sing my song

If I cannot have your love, I’ll sing the blues

Every time I’m feeling low and far away

All the time I think of you, every second of the day

And you know you hurt my pride, but I’d rather be by your side

If I cannot have your love, I’ll sing the blues

Sing the blues all my life, I got trouble, I got strife

How can a man expect to be so free?

To travel this so lonely road and to carry its heavy load

Is becoming far too much, too much for me

If I cannot be so happy, then I’ma gonna be on my way

The many nights I needed your love, it never worked out that way

For I must have my babe, for I’m feeling extremely sad

If I cannot have your love, I’m gonna play the blues

Sing the blues all my life, so much trouble, so much strife

How can a man expect to be so free?

To travel this lonely road and carry its heavy load

I’d rather have your love than sing the blues

Yes, I’d rather have your love than sing the blues

Yes, I’d rather have your love, baby, than sing the blues
