If I was a mountain. Or a flower on a tree. Would I be running. From the future that I see. Would I be cryin' baby. From the horror that lay before me. You've got to keep on runnin'. You've got to keep on lovin'. You've got to sing the blues.
I look in the mirror. And I wonder who I see. I see a person who tries to be all he can be. And for this person there is no tomorrow. And this person is singing the blues.
Deep in my heart down in my soul. I can feel the pain as it slowly grows. But I can shine the light. I can blow away the pain and the evil face. I will never see again. You've got to keep on fighting. You've got to live like the lightning. You've got to sing the blues.
And I remember the future. Through my childhood eyes. The people were smiling. And banished from all tempting lies. And I catch myself wishin' that I was. A child again. So come on honey. Help me make them understand. You've got to sing the blues.
Gonna have some good times. Gonna have some bad times. You've got to keep on singin' the blues. You've got to recognize the truth from the lies. You've got to keep on singin' the blues. You've got to compromise the death from the lives. You've got to keep on singin' the blues. You've got to realize you've got to be open. Your eyes you've got to keep on singin' the blues.
