[Instrumental] [Intro] [clean electric guitar playing syncopated jazz chords, shaker enters] Verse 1 The night falls slow on an empty street, Your shadow lingers where our heartbeats meet, A whisper soft in the pale moonlight, Calling your name through the quiet night. Chorus Oh, my love, like a sweet refrain, You soothe my soul, ease every pain, In every note, in every sigh, It’s you I feel when the blues run high. Verse 2 A lonely guitar hums low and true, Every chord keeps pulling me to you, Like velvet dreams on a midnight train, Rolling through memories, sweet and plain. Chorus Oh, my love, like a sweet refrain, You soothe my soul, ease every pain, In every note, in every sigh, It’s you I feel when the blues run high. Verse 3 If dawn should break and you’re not near, Still your echo lingers clear, In every tear, in every tune, I’ll find you there beneath the moon. Chorus (Outro) Oh, my love, don’t fade away, Stay in my song, come what may, For in these blues, so deep and true, Every line still leads to you.
