Same Old Blues Lyrics by Eric Clapton

Behind the Sun

1985

[Verse 1]
I'm sorry, baby, but I can't afford to stay
Your good, kind treatment will worry me someday
I love you, baby, but I'm going to have to say goodbye
When I got to move, I really got to fly

[Chorus]
Same thing every morning
Tell me what's it all about
I get those same old blues every night

[Verse 2]
I miss you already, baby, more than words can say
Seems like I've been gone 24 hours, more like a million days
I love you, baby, you know I would never tell you no lies
If you do not believe I love you, look at the tears standing in my eyes

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Here I am back home, baby, I'm back home to stay
I love you, babe, nevermore will I go away
I won't hurt you no more, baby, ain't gonna tell you no more lies
No more running around, no more phony alibi

[Chorus][x3]
