lyrics

Now and again
I get the blues
I get confused
Does that excuse my behavior?
But then again
I could blame you
Or blame the moon
Or blame the universe for being
So indifferent to my dreams
What kind of place
Could be so cold?
Could be so old?
That it withholds its deep secrets

In time and space
What is my role?
If there's no soul
Then there is
No real difference
Between good and evil
So why even bother
To be kind and civil to you?
Am I confused?
Is it the blues?
Is it the moon?
Or is it you (universal blues)?

Now and again
I get a clue
It isn't you
It isn't me
It isn't you
It isn't me
What can it be?
What can it be?
