Lyrics Something Blue - Alejandro Escovedo

The wind took my friend away
He flew away yesterday
The government lies, children die
They still won't heal the poor
Is there money
To be made
Off the people's parade.
They're selling broken hearts outside the door
So I'll write something blue
A melody, I'll play for you
I'll sing, yes I'll sing
Something blue
You claim a victory
Like a hurricane memory
St James is hanging in the breeze.
We turn another cheek
In velvet armour chic
We sing for the workers of tomorrow
So I'll write something blue

A melody, I'll play for you
I'll sing, Yes, I'll sing something blue
Nobody wants you< something blue
Maybe you'll turn to> something blue
Maybe they'll see, what the people need today
That's Everybody say
Hey hey
Another smoky rainy day
The magpie's flown away
Searching for love lost along the way
If this beginning has no end
Let the one man band begin
There's always time to tell another story
So I'll write something blue
A melody I'll play for you
I'll sing, Yes I'll sing
Something blue
Something blue
So, I'll sing
Yes, I'll sing
Sing For You
Something blue see less
