"Back Toward The Blue" lyrics

I could've been a better man
But in my time I don't know where or when
I couldn't see that you would leave
Take with you all the good in me
When we began you took my hand
And you led me on like a charlatan

Forget me not when your world turns back toward the blue

I couldn't eat I couldn't sleep
I lived on cocaine and whiskey neat
You never called or cared at all
You told the town that our love was false
And I remain your ball and chain
Till I get swept up in a hurricane

Forget me not when your world turns back toward the blue

Fare thee well oh Southern Belle
I loved you more than words can tell
Take your time, oh I'll be fine
Just keep my name on your mind

Forget me not when your world turns back toward the blue
