Blue Avenue
Where I spend my lonely days without you
Blue Avenue
Why did you go and tell me we were through?

You've stolen my heart and my love 
And now you say we're through
I'm walkin' down
Yeah, walkin' down on Blue Avenue

Oh, Blue Avenue
Yeah I'm feeling so bad
Blue Avenue
I lost the very best woman that I ever had

Alone so alone
But I pray that someday I'll find you 
Down at the end
Down at the end of Blue Avenue

Oh, Blue Avenue
Yay yay I'm feeling so bad
Blue Avenue
I lost the very best woman that I ever had

Alone so alone
But I pray
That someday I'll find you 
Down at the end
Down at the end of Blue Avenue
