(Coverdale/Marsden)
I love the blues,
They tell my story,
If you don't feel it you can never understand
So many times I thought about it
And now I know just what it means to be a man
Everyday I realize you can see it in my eyes
I never wait, or hesitate.
'Cos I love the life I live,
I'm gonna live the life I choose,
You gotta understand
I'm walking in the shadow of the blues
All of my life I've had a strange reputation,
I've been the black sheep of the family all along
I never know if in my heart I'm really guilty
But, I've been accuse

Sometimes in my sleep I hold you close against my skin
Wakin?up I wish that I could sleep and dream again
æ…?ause only in my dreams can I know how it might have been
But cheaters never win, Their Heartaches never end
But sometimes I get crazy as lovers often do
Trying to please him and wondering if she抯 pleasin?you
Though they have ever right to any part of us they choose
I still live just for you and our secret rendezvous

you don't live the way you should
you're not chaste or wise or good
oh no, when you're human
i wait for you my queen
i keep myself ready clean like my maker
against nature
i needn't worry about all the wars out there
the price of fish and all the ineffective hygiene
you are the reason why i've reached perfection
you are the reason why i try to tend this fertile void
i'm a 13th century boy
these are heroic times
so thumb your nose at years gone by
be hardened...we're a legend
now love keeps the country green
i know because i've seen the pictures
