Blues Before And After Lyrics By The Smithereens

    you know i really wanna see you when you know i might not
    and you make me want you more when you hurt me a lot
    i say i really love you and you say that you don’t
    and it really turns me on when you say that you won’t

    the blues before and after
    i get the blues before and after i’m with you
    the blues before and after
    i get the blues before and after loving you

    sometimes i need to hear you voice
    sometimes i don’t want to know
    i get so tired of tryin’ to win you i just don’t want to know
    you’re takin’ just what you need
    and then you’re well on your way
    i hear the same old story almost every day

    it’s a shame that you won’t see me when i need you tonight
    cause i know that if you did then everything would be right
    and i’ve tried my very best to give the things that you need
    but the blues they seem to follow me i never succeed

    i wanna take you in my arms and you just don’t wanna know
    when i finally get to touch you feels like forty below
    just as always you have gotten your way
    just a normal complication in a typical day
