Comes the Blues - Malcolm Holcombe

La and chicago san antonio

Another man has left you behind

Another woman cries for a sweeter taste of life

Those days have gone to sadness in your eyes

Standin' on the steps growin' older with regret

As i travel down the roads of my past

I wonder if she dreams of layin' in your arms

Late at night when stillness lingers on

Out of the city comes the blues

Grabbin' hold of me and you

Chokin' mem’ries by the hands of the truth

Out of the city comes the blues

Denver tallahassee and lovely new orleans

I wonder if you’ll miss me when i’m gone

Some people they dont want to remember what has been

Blowin' kisses to the sadness in the wind

Cocaine and the cops and the needles never stop

They follow me where ever i go

I always think of you and will you love me when i’m through

And beggin' to be left all alone
