Song Lyrics

I don t want to hear another word spoken, i can see you with both eyes closed in the dark
that i can see right through
Like this record, i want to look around and know
i don t want to hear another word spoken

you come and go
It s the rhythm of the blues, you come and go
I can listen with my heart, i want a place to call my own
Like the rhythm of the blues, on some pretence paper-thin

where you have never been
I can listen with my heart, like the rhythm of the blues, i don t want to see another tear shed
you won t be coming back again
I want a place to call my own, i want a place to call my own

I walk along these streets of home, that i can see right through
I can see you with both eyes closed in the dark, like the rhythm of the blues, i can see you with both eyes closed in the dark
Where you have never been, you come and go
on some pretence paper-thin

sleep will come in just a while
I don t want to hear another word spoken, that i can see right through
i walk along these streets of home
In the sound of my own footsteps on the avenues, lonely looks as bad on me

you won t be coming back again
To the rhythm of the blues, i don t want to see another tear shed
Don t want to hear, i don t want to hear another word spoken, i can hear the rain come down
in the sound of my own footsteps on the avenues

I don t want to hear another word spoken, don t want to hear, it s the rhythm of the blues
Like the rhythm of the blues, to the rhythm of the blues
You come and go, lonely looks as bad on me
to the rhythm of the blues
