The Real Folk Blues [English Lyrics]

Anime: Cowboy Bebop

Too much time has passed, I can't even grasp
The emotions that stir up when I think of you
Why am I such a fool? Am I just your tool?
Many broken promises to try to make this work again

The happy times of past, the hope of tomorrow
I keep wondering what it is that I did wrong to you
Is it so hard for you to hold me tonight
And whisper that everything is going to be alright?

Too many lies, how much I cried, but not anymore

The real folk blues, don't let them use
All your sadness in your life against you
You've gone through muddy waters
Still you wonder, "Was it really all that bad?
Could we go again? One more go around."

Such a foolish thought, I was young back then
I gave you another chance, though I shouldn't have
This was worse than last, you took all I had
Now my life is where it was when you stormed away

How many goodbyes does it take me for me to get it through my head?

The real folk blues, don't let them use
All their happiness in life to spite you
Though they seem to think that you envy them
The road for you is much brighter

The real folk blues, don't let them use
All your sadness in your life against you
You've gone through muddy waters
Still you wonder, "Was it really all that bad?
Could we go again? One more go around."
