These are the best thing that has ever happened to music and, indeed, Western Civilization as a whole.

hold me tight against my will
I am starting to forget
how it feels behind my lips
hands that hurt were meant to heal
I am starting to realize
all my actions have been consequences
I’m waitin in line

i’m second i’m runner up
a lesson i’ve learned enough 
i’m second i’m second best
a lesson i’ll learn the rest

close is never close enough
promise to keep my hands dry
keep a towel at my side
cashin out on all my luck
somethin safe to soak it up
paper towels couldn’t clean the spill from my overfilled cup

i’m second i’m runner up
a lesson i’ve learned enough 
i’m second i’m second best
a lesson i’ll learn the rest

I’ve got the blues and they’ve got nothing to do with Kansas or dust bowls or fishing 
￼I’ve got some kind of blues and they’ve got nothing to do with gambling or running the game
￼But I’ve got a clue￼. They might have something to do with coffee or worry or wind ￼
I’ve got a heart, and it’s telling me to part with the rearview and pounding expectation ￼

I’ve got the blues and they’ve got nothing to do with Reno or women or whiskey 
I’ve got some kind of blues and they’ve got nothing to do with shooting my old lady down 
But I’ve got a clue. They might have something to do with Fanny or Bessie or June  
And I think I’ll find that I can leave these blues behind in the box car of an old steam engine howler

The Unsure Blues

*Jump For Love (Duffield)

I Wasn’t lying
I was joking
I wasn’t breathing
I was choking
I wasn’t feeling
I was emoting
I wasn’t speaking
I had spoken..

Spring for love
Jump for love 
Spring for love
Jump for love 
Spring for love
Jump for love 
Jump for love 
Jump for love 

Oh, oh, the chance would be a fine thing
Over the water 
Over the bridges

Mark Duffield ~ Jump For Love
