Oh, I gave my last dance to you.

Don't hand it back to me, Bitterblue.

No, Bitterblue.



'Cause I've done all one man can do.

Don't pass me up, oh, Bitterblue.

Ah, Bitterblue.



'Cause I've been runnin' a long time

On this travellin' ground

Wishin' hard to be free

Of going round and round.

Yeah, yeah I've been movin' a long time,

But only up and down.



I gave my last hope to you.

Don't hand it back to me, Bitterblue.

My Bitterblue.



Oh, I've done all one man can do.

Please help me lose this, Bitterblue.

My Bitterblue.



Cause I've been waitin' a long time.

Eons been and gone.

Looking at the horizon

For my light to dawn.

Yeah, yeah, yes I've been livin' a long time

Looking on and on.



I've been runnin' a long time.

Summers come and gone.

Whoa, oh, drifting under the dream clouds

Past the broken sun.

Oh, yes, yes I've been livin' a long time

To be back beyond.



I gave my last dance to you.

Don't hand it back to me, Bitterblue.

Oh, my Bitterblue.



I've done all one man can do.

Don't pass me up, oh, Bitterblue.

My Bitterblue.

Oh, oh my Bitterblue.

Yeah, my Bitterblue.

My Bitterblue.

Oh, Bitterblue.



I gave my last dance to you.

Don't hand it back to me, Bitterblue
