Good idea for a thread Mike! Maybe a reality check thread. grin

Here's one of my favorite jazz ballads that Cal and I wrote. Not mainstream though. Kind of a Diana Krall tune.

I was hurt
When love took a twist
Now I can't get
Much bluer than this

I dropped my guard
Invited you in
I'm torn between,
The end and begin

I know I can't get, much bluer than this
I fell to my knees, I tried to resist
But you had your ways, that wonderful kiss
And I cannot get, much bluer than this

I loss control
Surrendered to bliss
Gave you my soul
Each thing on your list

There's too many things
I already miss
No I cannot get
Much bluer than this

Ah………………………………………………
I fell to my knees, I tried to resist
But you had your ways, that wonderful kiss
And I cannot get, much bluer than this

Ooh………………………………………………
