Woke up this morning,
the other side of my bed was cold.
Woke up this morning,
the other side of my bed was cold.
I'm glad you left me,
'cause things were getting too old.

Had to leave you, baby,
you were getting too cold.
Had to leave you, baby,
you were getting too cold.
I'm glad I left you,
'cause it was my soul that you sold.

I'm so blinded, baby
that I can't understand your clues.
Would you be so cold, honey
if you walked a mile in my shoes.
That's why they call it the blues.

Things were gettin' hard,
even harder for you.
Things were gettin' hard,
even harder for you.
Since you left me, baby,
missin' you is all I do.

You were makin' things hard,
way too hard for me.
You were makin' things hard,
way too hard for me.
Since I left you, baby,
I can finally see.

I'm so blinded, baby
that I can't understand your clues.
Would you be so cold, honey
if you walked a mile in my shoes.
That's why they call it the blues.

That's why they call it the blues.
That's why they call it the blues.
That's why they call it the blues.
