Transatlantic Blues

Monday morning I've been drinking with a friend Spent the past week chasing heaven But I just seem to descend Into places I wish no one had to go Guess I'm looking like I'm high on life But I've never felt so low Only passing time Just hoping to unwind Late December Only god knows where I've been But I've heard the sign of witness She's my document of sin So before you see I act like someone else Tell me what else I should When I'm still waiting for myself Only passing time Hoping to unwind Cause it's a strange world And strangest of all is the fact That I'm with you I've done some strange things And strangest of all of the things I didn't do to end up with The transatlantic blues Transatlantic blues I've been drifting like The wind across the seas Now I'm washed up On the same shores Where the breeze once carried me All I have left Is every word I never said When I see you every one of them Still echoes in my head Only passing time Just hoping to unwind Cause it's a strange world And strangest of all is the fact That I'm with you I've done some strange things And strangest of all of the things I didn't do to end up with The transatlantic blues Transatlantic blues Transatlantic blues I know it's a woman's world There are no I had my share I've been close to paradise But no one ever took me there Against the chain And ended up In my own hell Now I've finally got the time To realize how far I fell Well you broke me I can hardly breathe Pour that magic potion over me Come on, kill me With your sweet caress Help me come alive With every little bit -Solos- Cause it's a strange world And strangest of all is the fact That I'm with you I've done some strange things And strangest of all of the things I didn't do to end up with The transatlantic blues Transatlantic blues Transatlantic blues Transatlantic blues Monday morning I've been Drinking once again
