I stopped into our old hang out just wandered in to look about Countin' all the faces we once knew The thrill was gone the play seemed strange I looked for you you never came My heart was on the border of the blues A friendly smile here and there a table with an empty chair A love song I used to dance with you But since you're gone there's nothing left I couldn't stay the way I felt My heart was on the border of the blues [ guitar - piano ] A friendly smile here and there... My heart was on the border of the blues
