Blues Is Loss Lyrics

how did the dreams get so clean
taught my son to gamble
settle all his debts
they were easy to collect
then I let them ramble
taking baby steps
it was all I could've sent

how did the dreams get so clean
they were showing me things I hadn't seen
blues like a river
reaches and extends
and you never see the end
arrows in the quiver
targets on demand
you can bend
or just pretend
