Van Zandt, Townes - Blue Wind Blew Lyrics






Blue wind's blown my dreams away
My darling's flown and she's gone to stay
All I got now is yesterday
And I don't know what to do

I guess I'll go downtown and see
Just what downtown can do for me
Maybe set my lonesome free
Or maybe let me go

I loved her true and I told her so

I ask her too and she told me no
She said she had somewhere to go
And then she said good-bye

I wonder how long it can go on
How long I'll sing this same old song
I wonder which one done us wrong
Which one forgot to try

I loved her true and I told her so
I ask her too and she told me no
She said she had somewhere to go
And then she said good-bye

    I think the correct title is "Blue Wind Blew" Maybe i'm wrong. Either way one of my favorites. Great upload!

    I love to crank this up and play and sing along with Townes. He is the reason I play and sing. I heard a singer named Lonnie Knight sing "Poncho and Lefty" in a ski lounge at Spirit Mountain in Duluth, Minnesota in about 1973-4. From that moment on, I knew I wanted to do that. Had a nice phone chat with his wife a number of years ago. Amazing to me that this man, who I never met or even saw perform, has had such a lasting impact on my life.

    First time hearing this. So far, only been a fan for just over a year.
