I'm a man with many flaws, I will confess
But I'm not afraid to sing my troubles away
And I would never lie and cheat behind you

I'll be your sweet refuge after a long, hard day

Chorus:


The harshness of my eyes would surly lighten
If I found that you could love me too

And you can say that he's all you've ever wanted
But baby, does he play the blues?


Life gets dull and sometimes a bit mind-numbing
A release, that's something we all need
But baby, there's no room for worry when you're nowhere

And all your deadlines are relieved

Chorus:


The harshness of my eyes would surly lighten
If I found that you could love me too

And you can say that he's all you've ever wanted
But baby, does he play the blues?
