The Twangtown Paramours - 2. That's What the Blues Are For (3:34)

THAT’S WHAT THE BLUES ARE FOR
(c) 2016 by Mike T. Lewis/Inside Edge Music Publishing (ASCAP) & Dave Keyes/Keyesland Music (ASCAP)

Love is a word you been sayin’
But your kind of love I don’t need
It’s not for feeling alone, cut to the bone
Something that might make me bleed

Love ain’t for heartache and cryin’
Or for making me walk out the door
Love ain’t for leaving me lonely
That’s what the blues are for

Love is a lie you been telling
And the truth could set us both free
Why try to hide all that nothin’ inside
That you been feeling for me

Love ain’t for heartache and cryin’
Or for making me walk out the door
Love ain’t for leaving me lonely
That’s what the blues are for

The blues they don’t make no promises
They fill me to the brim with emptiness
They’re only what they are, that’s how it is
They don’t claim to be
They don’t pretend to be

Love… ain’t for heartache and cryin’
Or for making me walk out the door
Love ain’t for leaving me lonely
That’s what the blues are for
mm mm mm mm mm mm mm
That’s what the blues are for
