Billie Holiday – Deep Song lyrics
George Cory / Douglass Cross
Lonely grief is hounding me
Like the lonely shadow hounding me
It's always there just out of sight
Like a frightening dream on a lightning night
Lonely wind cries out my name
Sad as haunted music in the rain
It's born of grief and born of woe
But I hear it call and I've got to go
Where can I be headed for
The blues crawl in my door
To lick my heart once more
Love lives in a lonely land
Where there's no helping hand to understand
Why does it bring this ache to me
Why it don't matter why
I only know misery has to be part of me
Never hope to count on love
To be a partner of that heaven above
Never hope to understand
Love is a barren land
A lonely land, a lonely land
Lonely grief is hounding me
Like the lonely shadow hounding me
It's always there just out of sight
Like a frightening dream on a lightning night
Lonely wind cries out my name
Sad as haunted music in the rain
It's born of grief and born of woe
But I hear it call and I've got to go
Where can I be headed for
The blues crawl in my door
To lick my heart once more
Love lives in a lonely land
Where there's no helping hand to understand
Why does it bring this ache to me
Why it don't matter why
I only know misery has to be part of me
Never hope to count on love
To be a partner of that heaven above
Never hope to understand
Love is a barren land
A lonely land, a lonely land
