Indigo Blues
GILBERTO GIL
It's the new indigo.
Oh indigo in the sentimental blues
Oh indigo
Just keep running through my mind,
Just an old refrain that keeps on running through my brain
It's blues don't you know
Yes another sad refrain, I mean
I couldn't wait for you
I had to keep pushin' and askin'
Don't you see?
I thought you were the one for me
Blues
Always gets me in the sentimental blue
Oh indigo
Sophisticated swing
The moon hangs too low
Look to the falling rain
Let it wash away your pain
Ooh indigo
A simple word, a whisper
The smell of her perfume
I ask myself
Why I had to keep on
Pushin' and askin'
Blues
Always gets me in the sentimental blue
Fucking-drunken-never-thinking-blues
Blue
Indigo blues
