Two Steps From The Blues (Album) - Johnny Winter

One month from the day I first met you

Your promises proved to be untrue

Step by step I've been a fool

Now I'm just two steps from the blues

The reason we didn't get along

Was telegrams and telephone

One brings bad news other wonder new

That keeps me two steps from the blues

Now here my chance to be loved or be lonely

My heart awaits your call

I know it's better to have loved and lost

That's never have loved at all

So darling let's try to make amends

And if it should fail both try and try again

Makes no difference what you say or do

I'm so forgiving I'm so forgiving

And I can't go on living two steps from the blues
