Lyrics
Blue Waves
By Douglas E. Adair and Fred Barreto © 2004
Verse 1
Since you've been gone, I'm lost in the blues
I'm in an ocean of doubt, I don't know what to do
Blue waves - sinking like a fool
Chorus
Blue waves (blue waves) blue waves (blue waves)
Carry me away (blue waves) carry me away (blue waves)
I'm a drowning man (blue waves) in a sea of blue waves (blue waves)
Instrumental Break (x2)
Verse 2
Everywhere I look, the blues are all I can see
They're pulling me under, I can barely breathe
Blue waves - washing over me
Chorus
Blue waves (blue waves) blue waves (blue waves)
Carry me away (blue waves) carry me away (blue waves)
I'm a drowning man (blue waves) in a sea of blue waves (blue waves)
Instrumental Break (x2)
Repeat Verse 1
Since you've been gone, I'm lost in the blues
I'm in an ocean of doubt, I don't know what to do
Blue waves - sinking like a fool
Chorus
Blue waves (blue waves) blue waves (blue waves)
Carry me away (blue waves) carry me away (blue waves)
I'm a drowning man (blue waves) in a sea of blue waves (blue waves)
Blue waves (blue waves) blue waves (blue waves)
Carry me away (blue waves) carry me away (blue waves)
I'm a drowning man (blue waves) in a sea of blue waves (blue waves)
