Saw a loved one who seemed so blue and realized all I could really do to help was make suggestions...and write this song.

Lyrics
BLUES ABOUT YOU
By Randy Bishop (ASCAP), Copyright 2005
Come watch yourself alone at night
You sleep all restless in the bed
No matter what you've done to ease your life
You've got those troubles in your head
Chorus: You've got the blues about you babe Don't know what I'm gonna do
You've got the blues about you babe And I will see you thru Yes, I will see you thru
You get yourself all in an uproar
To watch the time go passing by
Even though you want to see me
Well, you won't even try
Chorus: You've got the blues about you babe
Can't seem to think of nothing else
You've got the blues about you babe Don't leave your life up on the shelf
Bridge: You're gettin' ready all the time you know Where you think you're gonna go Everybody wants to help you now
I know, yes I know
I'm gonna help you fight it
You're gonna fight it all the way
You've got to fight it everyday,everyday
Sittin' there you look so pitiful
I think your life is in a mess
Why not concentrate on the positive
And just forget about the rest
Chorus: 'Cause you've got the blues about you babe
Give yourself a little time
You've got the blues about you babe
You look so sad I want to cry
