about

This is what it feels like to be in love, even if the object of your affections doesn't even know you exist. The track started life as a musical tribute to Tom Jobim.

lyrics

THIS TASTE OF THE BLUES by Michael Baldwin prs registered

Its you.
No one but you.
That keeps me simmering, quivering, shivering
Feels like the flu.

Since I found you
I’ve been a fool
You make me activate, de-activate, re-activate
A chemical brew

What can I do
About you
To help me mitigate, dissipate, liquidate
The taste of the blues?

Oh Why
Am I
In love?

My head is hot,
My mouth is dry
My ears are singing.
My lips are numb
I feel quite dumb
My vest is ringing – wet

Yet you
What can you do?
You cannot know what a pain, what a torment
I’m going through.

So please
Put me away
To rehabilitate, vegetate, cogitate
In my own way

And see
When I pull through,
I’ll start to respirate, radiate, animate and motivate…

I wish
You could
Love me…

Hard as I try, can’t get rid of this taste of the Blues. Of the Blues
