Way up high in the bitter bye-and-bye With a vision in my brain and cinder in my eye I gaze into the gla** and I feel my body float And I read a hundred meanings in the letter that you wrote Why I came to know you, you sweet so-and-so, I'll never know We walk a twisted mile to see that time always wins Yet if we keep our promises we might get some back again It does my heart some good that I can ride along with you When it's all gone to hell and we've done what we can do And the moon will be rising soon Chorus: I'm trying to find it I can almost hear the tune I hope that you don't mind me Talkin 'till I'm blue 'till I'm blue Talking 'till I'm blue 'till I'm blue Wet gra** to my knees Is making my feet freeze
I'm looking at the sky and I'm climbing fallen trees And I'm lost in the museum of the path not chosen And the trail's gone cold and the beer's all frozen There's a revelation long overdue. Chorus: I'm trying to find it I can almost hear the tune I hope that you don't mind me Talkin 'till I'm blue 'till I'm blue talking 'till I'm blue 'till I'm blue talking 'till I'm blue 'till I'm blue Way up high in the bitter bye-and-bye With a vision in my brain and cinder in my eye. I gaze into the gla** and I feel my body float And I read a hundred meaning in the message that you wrote Why I came to know you sweet so-and-so, I'll never know
