My Old Friend the Blues Lyrics

...MY OLD FRIEND THE BLUES... by The Proclaimers
*from 'Sunshine On Leith' (1988)*
Intro:
Verse 1:
Just when every ray of hope was gone;
I should have known,
That you would come a-long.
I can't believe I ever doubted you;
My old friend the blues.
Verse 2:
Another lonely night, a nameless town,
If sleep don't take me first;
You'll come a-round.
'Cos I know I can always count on you;
My old friend the blues.
Bridge 1:
Lovers leave,
And friends will let you down.
But you're the only,
Sure thing that I've found.
No matter what I do I'll never lose,
My old friend the blues.
Solo:
Bridge 2:
Lovers leave,
And friends will let you down.
But you're the only,
Sure thing that I've found.
No matter what I do I'll never lose,
My old friend the blues.
Coda:
Just let me hide,
My weary heart in you;
My old friend the blues.
