LAST OF THE BLUES

Had a talk with God this morning

'bout me and you.
Turned my face to the heavens and cried
"God, What am I gonna do
without you baby
and the sweet love we had?"

He said "Stand up tall.
That's all that you can do
and I'll help you through
the last of your blues."

Well, I had to believe it.
I didn't think He'd lie.
But if that was the truth,
Why do I feel like I'm gonna die?

Why it seems the loss
is more than I can stand.
Why it feels like I'm walking
Down dark avenues.
Like I'll never lose
the Last of the Blues.

The time crawls slowly by
Like time sometimes does.
I might not have been in hell
but I could see it
from where I was.

Then one day I woke up
Not thinking of you.
Thought maybe I've seen, maybe I've seen
The Last of the Blues. .Last of the Blues.

Well, I've heard it said
and I believe that it's true
that when one door closes
another opens up for you.

When that door opened
New love walked in.
And now I feel stronger
Like I've been renewed.
And I know that I've seen
The Last of the Blues.

The Last of the Blues... Last of the Blues.
