I can hear the rain come down, I can listen with my heart
I can see you with both eyes closed
in the dark
Sleep will come in just awhile but 'til it does I choose
To listen to the
rain, it's the rhythm of the blues
I walk along these streets of home that once belonged to
us
And now, baby, I walk alone and I am lost
I guess I'm only walking to the rhythm of the
blues
I don't want to hear another word spoken
I don't want to see another tear
shed
I can't seem to fix what's broken
Like this record player in my head
Lonely looks as bad on me as lonely looks on you
And still we keep on moving to the rhythm of
the blues
I want a place to call my own where you have never been
I want to look around
and know you won't be coming back again
On some pretense paper-thin that I can see right
through
You come and go, baby, like the rhythm of the blues
You come and go, baby, like
the rhythm of the blues
You come and go, baby, like the rhythm of the blues
