The blues have had me
Without doubt and
Yours are yours and
Nothing I know about
Nothing I know about

There’s been pain
In my heart, without doubt
yours is yours
and nothing I know about
Nothing I know about

I’ve feared the wait
On the court steps
No doubt
Your fears are yours
And nothing I know about
Nothing I know about

I’ll stand alone when judged
As in my dreaded dreams
No doubt
Your nights are yours
And nothing
I know about.

I’ve turned my
Back without mercy
No doubt
Your loneliness
Has said that.
And what is yours
Is mine, so indelible
Is the exile
