Beat The Blues

Copyright Tim Cole 2005. All rights reserved.

How was I to know what was going on
When you wouldn't just talk to me
How was I to appreciate
All the things that I couldn't see

I am still here my love
There's no place I would rather be

You and me, we can beat the blues
You and me, we can beat the blues
Babe together, you and me, we can beat these blues
Yeah, beat these blues

When I see the clouds forming in your head
That's the time I find us a tree
Co's too much rain'l wash you down the drain
Then you're drifting right out to sea

Pre Chorus

Chorus

How we used to laugh at the funnier side of life
How we used to cry if we were hurting inside
I want us back as we were before

Chorus

Now I understand more about this thing
N' just how hard it is to beat
I am able to appreciate
Just how hard you are fightin' for me

The lonely fight against depression and how you, even if you cannot express it, you appreciate the help of those around you.

I do rather like "When I see the clouds forming in your head that's the time I find us a tree, Co's too much rain'l wash you down the drain then you're drifting right out to sea"
