Lyrics: Dolores Vicki Silvers
Music: Dolores Vicki Silvers
The tables are empty
Dance floor is deserted
You play the same love song
Like a hundred times you've heard it
That's the beginning
Just one of the clue
You had your first lesson
In learnin' the blues
The cigarettes you light
One after another
Won't help you forget her
And the way that you love her
You're only burnin'
A torch you can't lose
But you're on the right track
For learnin' the blues
When you're at home alone
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in the crowd
The blues will haunt your memory
The nights when you don't sleep
The whole night you're cryin'
But you can't forget her
Soon you even stop tryin'
You'll walk the floor
And run down your shoes
When you feel your heart break
You're learnin' the blues
When you're at home alone
The blues will taunt you constantly
When you're out in the crowd
The blues will haunt your memory
The nights when you can't sleep
The whole night you're cryin'
But you can't forget her
Soon you even stop tryin'
You'll walk that floor
And wear out your shoes
When you feel your heart break
You're learnin' the blues
