Deep Blue
by Larry Norman

Album: Wounded Lion

I stay at home

You know I drink to pass the time away

But it only brings me back to yesterday.

I put the coffee on

And I listen to the radio

But keep looking at the telephone.



I've been thinking about you for a long, long time,

I've been sinking in deep blue and my future's black,

Oh, baby, come back.


No matter what I do

I just can't forget the Love we had

But I can't erase my mind and just forget about you, no.

It's gone beyond all that

And I've got to have your love again


'Cause I got to make my heart stop breaking.


I've been thinking about you for a long, long time,

I've been sinking in deep blue and my future's black,

Oh, baby, come back.

You're all I think about, baby come back.


La, la, chu-la, la...



The days and weeks fly by

And I watch my feelings slowly die

I can feel the hope inside me pass away.

I lost my health, I lost my love

I lost my will to live.

I'm a heart-broken fugitive.



I've been thinking about you for a long, long time,

I've been sinking in deep blue and my future's black,

I been thinking about you baby,

Not easy living without you baby.


I've been thinking about you

And I keep hoping you'll come back.

I keep hoping you'll come back.


You never treated me right,

All we ever did was fight

I thought I couldn't live without you baby

But something happened to me last night.



spoken:
You wanna know what it was?

Uh-huh, OK, I'll tell you.



I planned to end it all

And I went back to my hotel room

And I locked the door closed with a broom

Opened up the drawer

And I reached inside to get my gun

But I found a Bible from the Gideons.



And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

(I wonder how it got there)

And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

(I didn't put it there, I didn't even know it was there)

And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

(Surprise, surprise)

And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

(Some things you can't ever figure)

And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

(Like this)

And I've been thinking about it for a long, long time.

(So long, goodbye)
