Delta Rain Requiem

Woke up this morning Sun don't shine no more Heart heavy as the rain That falls outside my door She left me standing In the pouring downpour Whispers of her goodbye Echo evermore Oh, the blues come calling In the dead of night Stealing all my dreams Turning wrong to right But I rise from the ashes Sing my sorrow low In this lonesome tomb Find the strength to go Walk these empty roads Chasing shadows of her smile Bottle in my hand But it don't ease the trial Betrayed by the one Who held my weary soul Now the wind just howls Called why'd she do me wrong Responded why'd she do me wrong Oh, the pain runs deep and long Can I find my way back home Blues will guide you never alone Oh, the blues come calling In the dead of night Stealing all my dreams Turning wrong to right But I rise from the ashes Sing my sorrow low In this lonesome tomb Find the strength to go Oh, the pain runs deep and long Can I find my way back home The guitar weeps softly Harmonica cries Memories fade like smoke in the skies Redeem this broken man Let the old wound subside Let the old wound subside Nights grow shorter Dawn breaks through the gray Learn to love the struggle Learn to love the struggle Let the past decay She took my trust But left me this song to sing In the heart of the blues Resilience takes wing Oh, the blues come calling In the dead of night Stealing all my dreams Turning wrong to right But I rise from the ashes Sing my sorrow low Sing it low In this lonesome tomb Let the past decay Sing my sorrow low Sing my sorrow low Sing my sorrow low Sing my sorrow low Sing my sorrow low
