Desolation Blues Lyrics

where did you take me when it was nearly dark? wearing a wreath of perfume and a beautiful spark and my tears were flowing in early morning light but I held you in my arms all through the night and when your heart is dead you'll get the desolation blues now I walk alone in the very far north have you ever seen the winter up here in cape wrath when the pentland firth in playing deadly games you can't even tell what is land or sea or sky I destroyed my life in a blizzard of lies and when your heart is dead you'll get the desolation blues my best friend has a headstone by a rainy motorway the coffin went down some of us prayed we threw some dirt down the hole then we walked away but if he were alive he couldn't help me today and when your heart is dead...
