I've been tryin' not to think about you, darling I've climbin' up and down on naked walls Knowin' what I know now makes me wonder How much longer can I stand before I fall Life has been so easy since you left I get up each day with nothing to do I've been hopin' to find a better way of living But it just seemed to walked out with you Every night I lay down I can hear The echoes of love in our bedroom And knowin' I'll never hold you again In your dancing shoes Is the hardest part of living with the blues I've been on a drunk just tryin' to cloud my mind But things don't get better 'til they do Guess sometimes you win nothing and sometimes you just lose That's just the way it is when you're living with the blues Every night I lay down I can hear The echoes of love in our bedroom And knowin' I'll never hold you again In your dancing shoes Is the hardest part of living with the blues Yeah this old line I'm walkin' It ain't the life I choose Now that's the hardest part of living with the blues
