BLUES WITH NO NAME

I hope you like the letter
It's the best that I can do
I wrote it in my daydreams
I hope you see the whole way through
Reply if you can save me
From these no name blues

I'd like to see you sometime
How I'd love to see you soon
But don't ask for my confessions
For all my reason's gone to ruin
I lost it in the limelight
Under the sun and the moon

They say ‘You’re doing it
Doing it the long way
You’re doing it
Doing it the wrong way
You're doing it the long, wrong way’
That’s what they say

I used to practice all my stage names
But my words were kinda raw
But my poise and lulled expressions
Held my world in awe
But I'm wondering who I am now
Since I became outlawed

Remember all the things I promised
Remember all the words I preached
They were dream days of the moment
Way beyond my reach
But I’m learning how to listen to echoes in my speech

They say ‘you’re doing it
Doing it the bad way
You’re doing it
Doing it the sad way
You're doing it the bad, sad way’
That’s what they say.

If I could cry, I might be happy
For all the laughter makes me sad
When you’re walking in the twilight
You doubt what’s good and what is bad
Been losing every feeling that I ever had


I hope you liked the letter
It's the worst that I can do
I wrote it in my nightmares
I doubt you saw the whole way through
I'll write when I can save you
From your no name blues
