Chase The Blues Away Well come along walk with me And learn the songs that lovers sing When they believe We'll dance along the river's edge Just arm and arm along the moonlit shore The midnight cries Well I just came to chase the blues away For a while Just like a child you'll cling to me From every sound along that rushes near It's just the breeze that licks your skin and rubs your breast And as we lay our river's flow away Your woman fear Well I just came to chase the blues away For a while With the morning sun we'll wake And lift our eyes and watch the eagle fly Up mountain high And on his wings our love will climb And never fail until he soars and dives Oh, he'll take your breath away Well, he just came to chase the blues away For a while Tim Buckley Tim Buckley Music ASCAP Released 1969 Straight/Warner Records - “Blue Afternoon” Running time 5:14
