Story Behind The Song
I actually wrote this about a poet, who seemed to be able to capture in her poetry my feelings-it brought tears. But the song is about a blue singer who so captures a woman's feelings about her losing her love.

Lyrics
When the Lady Sings the Blues I think of you I can't believe she knows just how I feel.
All I could do was crying when that woman was through, when the lady sings the blues I think of you.
And she said she was so scared when he told her he would leave. She felt like me, just like me. But she told him to go on that should carry on, but she was wrong, just like me.
I can't believe she knows just how I feel, when the lady sings the blues I think of you.
When the Lady Sings the Blues I think of you I can't believe she knows just how I feel.
All I could do was crying when that woman was through, when the lady sings the blues I think of you.
And while people sit and listen to her songs, I can't help myself I have to sing along.
When the Lady Sings the Blues I think of you I can't believe she knows just how I feel.
All I could do was crying when that woman was through, when the lady sings the blues I think of you.
