Lyrics Amanda Palmer – Bluesboy

Bright, my little bluesboy
you smile too much
let’s see a nice frown
don’t touch so much

he made it look fun
what’s done is done
I am so stupid
you are so young
and still I’d have to say
that now and then I’d cry to see your smile

still I have no reason
I have no rhyme
I’m out of your time
you’re out of town
a difference not in years
but in the distance from a place that I look through

you cried for me twice
and I have hope, but not enough, no not enough
no not so little that
I’d dare to tie the rope

she lied for you twice
she doesn’t like me
I understand but
she isn’t nice

and I sat by the window
you wrote a story
you think I’m evil
I hope you’re wrong
and still I felt a spark
when it’s implied that I had been a good thing

I’m still dumb
but you’re still young, but not enough, no not enough
no not so old that you could
realize what you’ve done
