You want to know
Why must I carry on so
When will light break
Through the clouds?
Why must I sing
All those minor mournful things?
Well if you know blue
I dont have to explain it to you
Because Ive got blues wings
Got some tunes for the tearful to sing
So if you know blue
Its all yours and its coming to you
Ill tell you again
Its born out of a life of pain
But cant you listen for the rainbow?
I dont sell sunshine
It aint my life, it would just be a lie
And if you cant feel it
Cant tell you bout the healing spirit
Oh cause Ive got blues wings
Got some tunes for the tearful to sing
And if you know blue
Its all yours and its coming to you
So dont ask me why
You should know as well as I
Why does any caged bird sing?
Shes got blues wings
Changes only freedom can bring
And until shes set free
Every song is a sad melody
Ive got blues wings
Got some tunes for the tearful to sing
And if you know blue
Its all yours and its coming to you
Ive got blues wings, blues wings
