Pete Townshend - Brilliant Blues Lyrics

Say goodbye to the brilliant blues
Say goodbye

It's time, to live
Make me, take me
It's time, to give
So don't betray me, pay me

The brilliant blues
Don't want to be frozen
I'll spend my mornings at the sunshine cafe
I've read the news and the clique-ridden notions
I know that now is the time to say

It's time, to teach
So tell me, come on tell me
It's time, to preach
So help me, come on and help me

The brilliant blues
Will never flow this way again
The color of the river is gray
The brilliant blues
Have faded into sadness and pain,
And now it's time to say, it's time

You and me are going to finally sail away
We'll get far away from the blues and the mist and the rain
You and me are going to fight until we win the day
For now is the time we must say goodbye
To the brilliant blues

The brilliant blues
Don't want to be frozen
I'll spend my mornings at the sunshine cafe
I've read the news and the clique-ridden notions
I know that now is the time to say

It's time, to trust
So buy me, come on try me
It's time, to thrust
Guide me, stay beside me

The brilliant blues
Will never flow this way again
The color of the river is gray
The brilliant blues
Have faded into sadness and pain,
And now is the time to say, it's time
