James Taylor - The Blues Is Just A Bad Dream [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
A tree grows in my back yard
It only grows at night
Its branches they're all twisted
Its leaves are afraid of light

[Chorus]
They say the blues is just a bad dream
They say it lives upside your head
But when it's lonely in the morning
You're bound to wish that you was lying dead

[Verse 2]
There's winds out on the ocean
They're blowing just as they choose
But then winds ain't got no emotion, baby
They don't know the blues

[Chorus]
They say the blues is just a bad dream
They say it lives upside your head, mmmm
But when it's lone, lonely in the morning
You're bound to wish that you was lying dead

[Verse 3]
My mind is rambling and rambling
Just like some rolling stone, no
Since that nightmare's come to stay with me, baby
My thoughts just don't belong

[Chorus]
They say the blues is just a bad dream
They say it lives upside your head
But when they visit you around midnight
You're bound to wish that you were lying dead
