Written with the Blues

Written With The Blues (Midnight/Gershman)

Sex and mystery, all night long Start the fire, we can do no wrong Take the moment, make it last

There is no future and there is no past

I don’t make wishes and I’ve got no plan It’s the same old song since time began High life or low life, win or lose

Good time, hard times, it’s all written with the blues

We won’t make history, but we’re making time Maybe we’re guilty but this ain’t no crime

I like my reefer, with a shot of gin

You like your innocence with a lot of sin

Can’t give you promises, but I give you my word If you wake up tomorrow, you’re free as a bird

Love comes, love goes, that’s just old news

Good times, hard times, it’s written with the blues

My heart is breaking but it’s just another bruise You’re a bad, bad habit that I can’t refuse

We’ve all got a story - and it’s written with the blues

We want it all, but we never learn

You’ve got be lucky or have money to burn But my rent is paid, I’ve got a friend or two Happiness is just another point of view

My heart is breaking but it’s just another bruise You’re a bad, bad habit that I can’t refuse

We’ve all got a story - and it’s written with the blues
