I don't want it all, I just want the best
The time has come, The gate is wide open
All the horses have left
And fires will burn and be gone
But you and me and the blues will go on
I don't want your soul, I just want your heart
The cities are dead and the skies are grey
It's true - we've all been betrayed
And now the fires burn like love songs
But you and me and the blues will go on
The Beast has been born and he blinks in the night
And the crowds stand and cheer
And the faithful shed tears
As he spreads his wings and takes flight
Still this fire will be burn and be gone
But you and me and the blues will go on
