Song Description

Blues Go Away is about losing something or someone important that has gotten you through many things in the past but as no longer needed as life changes.

Lyrics

Verse:
When this song is over, I'm going to pack these tunes away.
I've got no grounds for feeling down any more.
My love has been away so long but now he's coming home to stay.
I won't need these Blues to wile away the hours like before.

Pre-Chorus:
But what can I do? I'm going to miss these old shoes.
The souvenirs of all these years alone.
But holding on to you and my melancholy solitude,
Ain't good for me no more, I'm going to rush you out the door now.

Chorus:
Blues go away. I'm begging you, Blues go away
I know I'll miss my faithful friend but I'm going to be OK, so Blues go away.

Verse:
Its true this old refrain has worked for me so well.
Its hard to walk away from this old hand.
So one more time we'll sing these lines and let that music swell,
Then you've gotta go, when my baby shows ... 'cause he won't understand.

Break:
So worn and well used ... I've gotten used to these Blues,
That same old line, I'm doing fine on my own.
One tearful good-bye to the friend I so depend upon,
Then that's all, its last call, its time to go home

Chorus:
Blues go away. I'm asking you nice ...Blues go away.
I know I'm going to miss you but he's coming home to stay.
I know I'll miss my faithful friend but I'm going to be OK. Blues go away.
