I’ve always tried to level with you eye to eye
I finally found the devil in you by and by But I don’t really want to be the
Last one singing the blues
When it comes to fiction you’re the best I’ve met
But all those little lies
Are gonna get you yet
But I don’t really want to be the
Last one singin' the blues
(*) You say that you love me But if you really love me Then why do you treat me this way
Your game is that you’re gone again
It’s off and then it’s on again
Well someday I won’t play
If all I do is catch you in the same old lies
I’ll just have to look at you
With different eyes
'Cause I don’t really want to be The last one singin' the blues
Repeat (*)
Well fate will soon determine you’re the one to lose
I’ll be the one who’s handin' you your walkin' shoes
'Cause I don’t really want to be The last one singin' the blues
Yeah, I don’t really want to be The last one singing the blues
Well its definitely a solo effort. Despite me not being a fan of theirs, I know and heard enough of the Carpenters to know their sound. It’s a shame its not more widely available as I prefer this to the more popular stuff.
I miss Karen sooo much. Love this song...it is so Karen.
Karen and I suffered from anorexia at the same time....she was my inspiration to get well....and I did.
RIP Karen. Her beauty is beyond measure and her spirit lives on through her music!
