Blues Away Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'd like to be yours
Tomorrow
So I'm giving you some time
To think it over today
[Chorus]
But you can't take my blues away
No matter what you say, babe
You can't take my blues away
No matter what you say
What you say, hey, babe
[Verse 2]
Hey, babe
What's your thinking?
No, darling
It won't, won't change my mind
[Chorus]
But you can't take my blues away
Now, tell me what you say, babe
You can't take my blues away
No matter what you say
What you say, hey, babe
[Bridge]
This way I feel
I know that it's true
Because it's for you
You know that it's true
But you try to be
Hard to resist
I ask what it's for
You know you close the door
(No, no, no, no)
Yeah
(No, no, no, no)
[Chorus]
Tell me what you say, babe
Say, yeah, babe
You can't take my blues away
Tell me what you say
What you say, yeah, babe
[Outro]
I've got the power
Do it in the hour
Say anything
'Cause I've got this feeling
Say it in the hour
I've got the power
Come on
Yeah
Come on
