Big City Blues

(album: 2:00 AM Paradise Cafe - 1984)

[Mel:]
Much of my life has been spiced with romance

[Barry:]
Too many bedrooms I've slept in by chance

[Mel:]
Drowning out my sorrow

[Barry:]
Longing for tomorrow

[Both:]
Caught up in the big city blues

[Barry:]
Rain pouring down from a cold winter sky

[Mel:]
Don't wanna smile and I'm too sad to cry

[Barry:]
Clouds hanging above me

[Mel:]
No one there to love me

[Both:]
Guess it's just the big city blues

[Barry:]
Someday I'll find me the dream that I'm after
I'll know her with only a glance

[Mel:]
She'll make me smile and she'll fill me with
Laughter
And our love will be like a dance

[Both:]
Skies will be clear and the sweet sun will shine
I'll hold her near and I'll know that she's mine
No more stormy weather
Love will last forever
Good bye to the big city blues

[Mel:]
Someday I'll find me the dream that I'm after
I'll know her with only a glance

[Barry:]
She'll make me smile and she'll fill me with
Laughter
And our love will be like a dance

[Both:]
Skies will be clear and the sweet sun will shine
I'll hold her near and I'll know that she's mine
No more stormy weather
Love will last forever
Good bye to the big city blues
Good bye to the big city blues
Good bye to the big city
Good bye to the big city blues
