Lee Aaron - Chaser For The Blues Lyrics

Dry martini on the wetbar
I sip an' wonder where you are
Are you alone tonight
Or is someone adoring you

Another cocktail's comin' my way
I wish tomorrow, would come some other day
But tonight just to get through
Ta start me, thinkin' 'bout forgettin' you

Hey buddy, give me a chaser for the blues

Sweet cigarillos, and cheap perfume
Fill up this otherwise, half-empty room
In a gin and vermouth haze
I find myself slippin' away

Haunted by the memories
The tenderness, of your kiss
Is the one thing that I, I really miss
And the last thing that I wanna do
Is to be here, thinkin' 'bout forgettin' you

Hey buddy, give me a chaser for the blues

Mama said it was my daddy's crutch
But sometimes a bourbon, can be virtuous
And this ain't the first time, I know he'd understand
It won't be the last time, I wash away a man

I sit alone here, with my new friend
Ah he don't talk much, but 'e listens on and
And people carry on, lovers dance to my sad song
And I am just invisible

Dry martini on the wetbar
I sit here knowin', that wherever you are
Your heart is shiny an' new
While my heart is still, the eternal ingénue

Hey buddy give me a chaser for the blues

A chaser for the blues
So I can leave this smoky room
Forgettin' to think
About
You
