Once I thought your love I'd win but your old flame showed up in town again

Now I know your love I'd lose I've got a one way ticket to the blues

I've got a one way ticket to a world that's full of tears

All my dreams and hopes are gone we built up through the years

Seems I can't win I always lose I've got a one way ticket to the blues

[ fiddle ]

I've tried to find somebody new but in my heart there's only room for you

You gave me something I can't lose I've got a one way ticket to the blues

I've got a one way ticket...
