Текст песни Tender To The Blues - James Yorkston and The Athletes

Before I jump ship, for cooler shores
May I gently close this account of ours
Though all that I know and have loved, is inside
I′m just losing faith in these costly times
And I pray for your health and your peace of mind
But God must know I just want you by my side
And the morning I've woken and sought your warmth
If only I′d held you and told you before

But I'm no fool, my heart is just exposed
I'm just weathering the flows
And I′m not the man you thought, I suppose
You leave me tender to the blues

And you phone me to tell me, of these regrets of yours
But I′ve been lying awake until the small small hours
And the wise men say I should fight for my cause
But I'm all punched out and just so so tired

But I′m no fool, my heart is just exposed
I'm just weathering the flows
And you′re not the girl I thought, I suppose
You leave me tender to the blues

I'm no fool, my heart is just exposed
I′m just weathering the flows
And I'm not the man you thought, I suppose
You leave me tender to the blues
To the blues
