Song lyrics

The tables are empty, the dance floor's deserted
You play the same love song, it's the tenth time you've heard it
That's the beginning, just one of the clues
You've had your first lesson in learnin' the blues

The cigarettes you light one after another
Won't help you forget him and the way that you love him
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 a crowd
The blues will haunt your memory

[2x:]
The nights when you don't sleep, the whole night you're cryin'
But you can't forget him 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

When you feel your heart break, you're learnin' the blues
