Black and Blue

Black and Blue - Dave Gleeson

Her close friends have gathered

Lord ain't It a shame

Grieving together

Sharing the blame

But when she was dying

Lord we let her down

There's no use crying

It can't help her now

The party's all over

Drink up and go home

It's too late to love her

And leave her alone

Just say she was someone

Lord so far from home

Whose life was so lonely

She died all alone

Who dreamed pretty dreams

That never came true

Lord why was she born

So black and blue

Oh why was she born

So black and blue
