Wise is the man sleeps with the blues Nothing will ever bring him to his knees Cold are the nights, long are the days But no one can ever take love away And he kept a lock and key on it forever And he took it out to make sure it was dead And he held it in his hand Held it in his hand And he waited for the dawn for some relief Woo~ Calm is the girl, flames in her hair Keeper of paths, mirth and despair Cold winter day, warm summer night That no one will ever bring back to life And he kept a lock and key on it forever And he took it out to make sure it was dead And he held it in his hand Held it in his hand And he waited for the dawn for some release Woo~ Wise is the man sleeps with the blues Wise is the man sleeps with the blues
