Lyrics: Jayhawks. Music from the North Country: The Jayhawks Anthology. Blue.

Where have all my friends gone
They've all disappeared
Turned around maybe one day
You're all that was there

Stood by on believing
Stood by on my own
Always thought I was someone
Turned out I was wrong

An' you brought me through
And you made me feel

So blue
Why don't you stay behind
So blue
Why don't you stop and look at what's going down

Lived by an old woman
She'd never sell me a lie
It's hard to sing with someone
Who won't sing with you

Give all of my mercy
Give all of my heart
Never thought that I'd miss you
That I'd miss you so much

You brought me through
And you made me feel

So blue
Why don't you stay behind
So blue
Why don't you stop and look at what's going down

All my life I've waited for
(Stand by, stand by)
Someone I could show the door
(Waiting around)

(Now, that I'm blue)
But nothing seems to change
(That I'm blue from now on)
You've come back into my arms

So blue
Why don't you stay behind
So blue
Why don't you, why don't you stay behind

So blue
Why don't you, why don't you stay behind
So blue
Why don't you stop and look at what's going down
