Silent partner
Just heart beat ago my darlingh left me With a good by kiss she sadly broke the news In her empty chair that's just across the table Sets my brand new silent partner called the blues Her cigarette's still burning in the ash tray Reminds me of the pain I put her thru As I watch the front door slowly close behind her Though the back door walked my partner called the blues As I look back at the time we spent together I can see how wrong I've been for all these years For she offered me a lifetime of devotion In return she'll walk a highway paved with tears I know its too late to ask forgiveness With a love like hers its just too much to lose Now I know that I must start my life all over With my brand new silent partner called the blues
