Katie Melua Learning The Blues Lyrics

Learning The Blues Lyrics

The tables are empty - the dance floor deserted 

You play the same love
song - it's the tenth time you've heard it 

That's the beginning - just
one of the clues 

You've had your first lesson - in learning the blues




The cigarettes you light - one after the other 

Won't help
you forget him – when you're losing your lover 

You're only burning - a
torch you can't lose 

But you're on the right track - for learning the
blues 



When you're out in the crowd , the blues will taunt you -
constantly 

When you're out in a crowd, the blues will haunt your memory




The night when you don't sleep - the whole night you're crying


But you cannot forget him - soon you even stop trying 

You'll walk
the floor - and wear out your shoes 

When you feel your heart break -
you're learning the blues
