Some of Shelly's Blues

OK OK I know I said y'all had to hear Nine Times Blue but now this is your new Nez required listening. The lyrics aren't as good but the way he uses his voice on this one is SOOOOOO incredible I feel like hitting my head in the wall nine times over and asking myself why I can't put that emotion in MY voice. I guess there's only one Michael Nesmith. And here's what he said:
Tell me, just one more time,
The reasons why you must leave.
Tell me once more why you're sure you don't need me.
Tell me again, but don't think that you'll convince me.
Now you've said, before falling in love again
You'd rather be dead.
'Cause when someone breaks your heart
You cry your eyes read.
But there's nothin' so hard about the life that you've lead
As far as I can see there's no reason for "goodbyes."
You're just running scared and that's something I won't buy.
So you lose
I won't let you go with nothing to show but more blues.
And all this talk about leavin' is strictly bad news.
So you settle down and stay with the man that loves you.
