lyrics

All Blues
Music by Miles Davis
Lyrics by Clifford Brown Jr. (not shown)
New lyrics by Alexa Weber Morales

The air you’re breathing
Softly is seething
With a pale green fear
So much beauty in a tear
Liquid love
Silver soul
Sail away

Blood when it drips
The color of every lie
Love’s on your lips
And life is in your eye

You’re afraid to feel
But the water is real
Dive all the way down
And there’s no one around
Purple waves
Azure nights
Blues in flight
