Píseň: Blues Can't Even Find Me

Interpret:
John Hiatt
Album:
Mystic Pinball
World is closin' in on me
Don't know what to do
Can't see the big picture anymore
If there's even one to view
Wife keeps pushin' buttons
Spend all day starin' at a little screen
I'm feelin' invisible
The blues can't even find me
Wish I had a name for feelin' nothin'
Wish I still had my old address
Where anyone could come on over
And just put me in a mess
Now I'm tellin' everybody
When we'll be takin' our next breath
Blues can't even find me
Like we never even met
She cried all the way to Memphis
With the kids in back
And only me to talk it out with
Used to be like that
Now there's fifty people in the car
And the kids are grown
And I've heard her side fifty times
Talkin' on her cell phone
Now we're just so lonely
And there's no turnin' back
It's virtually impossible
But I can live with that
I wouldn't want in on this train wreck
Wouldn't wanna be on this last date
Now the blues can't even find me
All I know to do is wait
Now the blues can't even find me
All I know to do is wait
