I've got the worried blues,
And I don't know what to do.
It seems my dreams
Have been tarnished by events.

And I think of you
and I hope that we aren't done.
You're the one I need
To get me through a lonely lifetime.

Some of the things they said
Well they might have been true
But I really dont appreciate it so much.

Just yesterday I had so much to say.
Seemed like people wanted to listen.
But now today nobody wants to have a thing to do with me.

And I'm so sad.
Everything has turned out bad.
I tried so hard,
But goofed up somehow.

I just want you to know
I didn't mean no harm on purpose.
But they turned it into a circus
Just to put me down

But I'm still around.
Maybe I'll have another chance.
To turn the tables
And be a hero in the end

Just yesterday I had so much to say
Seemed like people wanted to listen.
But now today nobody wants to have a thing to do with me.

And so I'm singin'
The 1989 blues.
But I'm lookin for a tune:
A better future for me and you.

And now it comes,
The end of this song.
Some of the things I did might have been wrong
But it's only because I was out of my mind.

The 1989 Blues
