Used to be so easy to give my heart away
But I found out the hard way, there's a price you have to pay
I found out that love was no friend of mine
I should have known time after time
So long, it was so long ago, but I've still got the blues for you
Used to be so easy to fall in love again
But I found out the hard way, it's a road that leads to pain
I found that love was more than just a game
You're playin' to win, but you lose just the same
So long, it was so long ago, but I've still got the blues for you
So many years since I've seen your face
Here in my heart, there's an empty space where you used to be
(I still got the blues)
So long, it was so long ago, but I've still got the blues for you
Though the days come and go, there is one thing I know
