Blue Melody Lyrics
Tim Buckley
Well I was born a blue melody
A little song my mama sang to me
It was a blue melody
Such a blue
Youve never seen
There aint no wealth
That can buy my pride
There aint no pain
That can cleanse my soul
No just a blue melody
Sailing far away from me
One summer mornin
I was raised
But I dont know
One summer morning
I was left
But I dont know
One summer morning
So all alone
Late in evning
Ill sing in your dreaming
Down from the mountain
Along with the breezes
So close inside
Love grew smiles
So if you hear that blue melody
Wont you please send it home to me
Its just my
Blue melody
Callin far away to me
