Oxford Blues - Rahsaan Patterson

You’re all alone now

Thinking what did you do?

Hearing your song of loneliness

Thinking why didn’t you?

Take better care of her and make it better off

Instead, you let her run

And now you lay at night with tears in your eyes

Pretending behind the smile that you used to hide

Oxford blues

Days are long with her loving gone

And now you’re behind behind the smile that you used to hide

Oxford blues

You’re all alone now

Thinking what did you do?

Missed opportunities and regrets

Pulling at you (And it’s got you thinking why)

Why didn’t you (You should’ve taken better care of her)

Take better care of her (Could've made it better off)

And make it better off (Instead, you let her run)

Instead, you let her run

And now you lay at night with tears in your eyes

Pretending behind the smile that you used to hide (Uh)

Oxford blues

Days are long with her loving gone (Her loving gone)

And now you’re behind behind the smile that you used to hide

Oxford blues

And now you lay at night with tears in your eyes

Pretending behind the smile that you used to hide

Oxford blues

Days are long with her loving gone

And now you’re behind behind the smile that you used to hide

And now you lay at night with tears in your eyes

(Lay at, tears, crying)

Pretending behind the smile that you used to hide

(Behind the smile you used to hide)

Oxford blues

Days are long with her loving gone

And now you’re behind behind the smile that you used to hide

Oxford blues

Mmm, Oxford blues, yeah, yes

Oxford blues

Mmm, Oxford blues
