Behind The Blues

Well, I had almost given up 
on finding love, I’d had enough 
contented just to live alone 
no wife, no children, no happy home 

And the many hours they slipped away 
With no map, no compass I’d gone astray 
traveling down this road alone 
runnin’ wild and on my own 

CHORUS 
But it’s time for me to be with you 
time to leave behind the blues 
Come rain or shine, come win or lose 
it’s time for me to be with you 

The clouds, they parted when you came my way 
The sky, it turned to blue from gray 
and all my troubles seemed to fade 
when you smiled at me and you said you’d stay 

CHORUS 
You said “it’s time for me to be with you 
time to leave behind the blues 
Come rain or shine, come win or lose 
it’s time for me to be with you 

CHORUS 
it’s time for me to be with you 
time to leave behind the blues 
Come rain or shine, come win or lose 
it’s time for me to be with you 

Behind the blues, behind the blues 
there’s a big ‘ol smile for me and you
