I was just a poor boy Until you came along Your love made me richer, yeah Than a king on his throne But now you're gone Now you're gone But now you're gone Now you're gone These blues are all I've got For a boy who had so little I sure have lost a lot I lost the will to live When you stopped loving me Yet I told all my friends I was glad you set me free
I said I'm better off without you But Heaven knows I'm not Oh, these blues are all I've got For a boy who had so little I sure have lost a lot Nobody knows Nobody knows All the trouble I've seen The trouble I've seen Nobody knows Nobody knows Just what my troubles mean What my troubles mean Nobody knows Nobody knows --- .
