Lyric
Woke up this morning with day old coffeeSmoked what was left of your cigaretteSit by the phone just in case you call meIt ain’t ringing yetYou’re probably half way to AlbuquerqueYou’ll hang a north up to Santa FeYou’ll never know just how much it hurt meTo watch you walk awayFrom my blue bedroomI’ve got a sad and lonely viewOf a melancholy moonMy pillow smells like your perfumeMissing you in my blue bedroomYou never told me why you were leavingI guess you did what you had to doIf you find that love is what you’re needingIt’s waiting here for youFrom my blue bedroomI’ve got a sad and lonely viewOf a melancholy moonMy pillow smells like your perfumeMissing you in my blue bedroomYou left a red dress, some purple shoesThat silver comb that you never usedA yellow ribbon from your hairBaby you’re still everywhereIn my blue bedroomIn my blue bedroomI’ve got a sad and lonely viewOf a melancholy moonMy pillow smells like your perfumeMissing youI’m needing youBaby I want youIn my blue bedroom
