Answer 2

Yaz Mr Blue lyrics

winter sounds the crying
like an old man slowly dying
and the only sound, the wind that fills the trees
even colder comes the moon
and though it never seems too soon
a sudden stillness as the rainfall starts to freeze
(chorus)
i'm mr blue
i'm here to stay with you
and no matter what you do
when you're lonely - i'll be lonely too
(repeat)
a young girl, she is shaded
bears the scars that never faded
of the baby that was born on christmas day
while the heavens sing their song
a child's life is never long
'cos the food supplies will only last a day
(chorus repeat)
patriot emotion, is the cause of the commotion
after all there's really no-one here to blame
soldiers taking orders, 'cos we must defend the borders
of our nation (and the other side's the same)
(chorus repeat)
i'll come to you at night
when all the world is sleeping tight
and lie beside you, till the early morning dew
you can't hear me, you can't see
but you can feel me when you read
the folded letter she left addressed to you
(chorus repeat)

Answer 3

forgive me but are you confusing it with the song -
sitting on the dock of the bay???

Sittin' in the mornin' sun I'll be sittin' when the evening comes
Watching the ships roll in An' I watch 'em roll away again, yeah

Sittin' on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away, mmm
Just sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time

I left my home in Georgia Headed for the 'Frisco Bay
I had nothin' to live for Looked like nothin's gonna come my way

So I'm just gonna sit on the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away, mmm
Just sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time

Looks like nothin's gonna change Everything still remains the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do So I guess I'll remain the same

Sittin' here restin' my bones And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Listen - two thousand miles I roamed Just to make this dock my home

Now I'm just gonna sit at the dock of the bay Watchin' the tide roll away, mmm
Just sittin' on the dock of the bay Wastin' time


i know how easy it is getting song lyrics wrong
bleeding fustrating
