Connecticut Blues

(album: Outdated Emotion - 2022)

I put some potatoes in to bake
Picked up a couple of real nice steaks
I'm chilling her favorite Chilean wine
Everything was right on time
But she won't be coming home tonight
They canceled the flight

Now you can imagine my disappointment in hearing that
Looks like dinner's just gonna be me and a cat
This has happened to me just too many times
I feel like I'm paying for somebody else's crime
So as I sip the wine and whine
I got the low-down, snow-bound Connecticut blues

The part I love to hate the most
Is getting more of something I can't use

I've got tears running down my face
I've got blues all over the place
The good times just won't let me in
I tried over and over again
So as I sip the wine and whine
I got them low-down, snow-bound Connecticut blues
