you mean to lose your very soul,
You mean there’s nothing on the next day,
You mean the misery

You mean to give up, all the way,
You don’t believe in anything
You mean the blues is here to stay,
You mean the misery

You’re not a felon, you’re not a victim,
You ain’t no judge, you ain’t no jury
It’s just this burden in your heart:
Give up to misery

You mean to look at a new dawn,
You wish to heal, you wish to feel
You wish to love these lovely eyes
You wish no misery

You´ve got the music to lean on
You’ve got the sunshine every morning
You’ve got your smile, you’ve got your angels
You mean no misery
You won’t forget, you won’t regret,
You wish to forgive, you mean to let
You wish to love, you mean to leave:
You wish no misery
