Romancin' the Blues - Linda Eder

I should be dancin', sipping champagne

Painting the town red, singin' in the rain

I should be the headlines not yesterday’s news

Tonight I’ll be romancin' the blues

I hope he’s happy, wastin' my best years

Guess I’ll pour me a stiff one

Then I’ll pour out the tears

I could slip on a brave face, but I simply refuse

Tonight I’ll be romancin' the blues

You’d think by now that I’d have learned about love

But the record shows I’ve not done well

You’d think by now that I’d have learned about love

But right now, baby, love can go to hell

Oh, hello heartache, throw me a parade

Let’s have a celebration for the mess that I have made

So here’s to all the winners from those of us who lose

All of us romancin' the blues…

Here’s to all the winners from those of us who lose

All of us romancin' the blues

Tonight I am…

Romancin' the blues
