Stella Blue (Live at Knickerbocker Arena, March 1990)
[Verse 1]
All the years combine, they melt into a dream
A broken angel sings from a guitar
In the end there's just a song comes crying up the night
Through all the broken dreams and vanished years

[Refrain]
Stella Blue
Stella Blue

[Verse 2]
When all the cards are down, and nothing comes for free
There's just the pavement left and broken dreams
And when you hear that song comes crying like the wind
Down every lonely street that's ever been

[Refrain]
Stella Blue
Stella Blue

[Bridge]
I've stayed in every blue-light cheap hotel, can't win for trying
Dust off those rusty strings just one more time
Gonna make them shine (Shine)

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
It all rolls into one, and nothing comes for free
There's nothing you can hold, for very long
And when you hear that song come crying like the wind
It seems like all this life was just a dream

[Refrain]
