Elvis Costello - Blue Chair lyrics

Now it's just you and memy blue friend

And you say that it's you that she's thinking of

And our affair must end

But if it's you that she's thinking of

I think my broken heart might mend

Chorus: now it's my turn to talk and your turn to think

Your turn to buy and my turn to drink

Your turn to cry and my turn to sink down in the blue chair

Down in the blue chair

Now I've made up my mind I've made my mistake

And I know that she cries for you

When she's barely awake

Well she's going to bend your mind

Well I hope it don't break

Chorus

Down in the blue chair

We can watch our troubles rise

Like smoke into the air

And drift up to the ceiling

Down in the blue chair

You can feel just like a boy or a man

And next minute you can find yourself kneeling

Down in the blue chair

They're boasting of loving the daylights right out of her in the small hours

Down in the blue chair

You say that your love lasts forever when you know the night just hours

And still I want her right now

Not any minutehour or day

And wherever she is tonight

I want her anyway

I suppose she never said to you

You were just in the way

Chorus

Down in the blue chair

Down in the blue

Blue becomes you

Down in the blue chair
