Blue

Joni Mitchell

Blue, songs are like tattoos

You know I've been to sea betore

Crown and anchor me

Or let me sail away

Hey Blue, here is a song for you

Ink on a pin

Underneath the skin

An empty space to fill in

Well there're so many sinking now

You've got to keep thinking

You can make it thru these waves

Acid, booze, and ass

Needles, guns, and grass

Lots of laughs, lots of laughs

Everybody's saying that hell's the hippest way to go

Well I don't think so

But I'm gonna take a look around it though

Blue, I love you

Blue, here is a shell for you

Inside you'll hear a sigh

A foggy lullaby

There is your song from me
