And a river ran, and a train ran And a dream ran through everything that he did There was melody, there was harmony There was sweet Sherrie but it was melody he loved most of all And an ice cube in a quiet room melts through an afternoon 32 in the shade And a books talks and a magazine speaks And a window breaks and a movie was in his head
And it ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue And it ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue
It was a head trip, it was a friendship He picked me up when I might have slipped, not done a thing A sly grin that played to win We will not see his kind again anymore
And it ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue It ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue
I write these words to his tune That he wrote on a full moon And a river ran and a train ran And a dream ran through everything that he did And it ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, that love is blue And it ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue
But it ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, love is blue And it ain't easy It ain't easy when that love is blue, the love is blue
