Rang the bell, just to leave
And the papers do say
In some legal term way
It´s o´er as you walk out the door
You look back, just a glance
And you want a reply
To the window-paned stare
Don´t ask,
it´s the last of a long term affair
And I stand still in shock, looking dumb
Knowing that the answers to questions
Might never come
Oh why, after so many years
Smoked out Blues in the night
The pain of lovers past
The lull of Billie´s cries
And the words that never last
And I dream, as I wake
That you´re there in her arms
Falling prey to her charms
Your laugh it still hangs in the air
I get up, for my sake
`Cause the thoughts in my head
Have me wishin’ I was dead
Confused, feeling ever so used
And I pass thru each day, all alone
Never knowing really what happened
Or what went wrong
Oh why, after so many years
Smoked out Blues in the night
The pain of lovers past
The lull of Billie´s cries
And the words that never last
