The Real Folk Blues #CowboyBebop English Lyrics

I love this song so here is the English version! Recorded at Dagmusic Tokyo August 2018 with Ganime Jazz. Lyrics adapted by Donna Burke

So many years have passed
It would be a sin
To regret loving you so hard
And for so long now
Winds never changing course
As they chill the scars
Born from the weeping wounds
Of this broken heart

One eye on tomorrow
Waiting, watching it
While the other is looking back
On my yesterdays
Oh just to sleep again
So peacefully
In the cradle of your arms
Loving one more time

Somebody cry, somebody weep for me
But don’t you shed a tear

The real folk blues
Just want to know
I just want to know what sadness is
Though you spend your life
Down in the mud
Muddy water ain’t so bad as it seems
If it’s just the once, one round ain’t so bad

Despair born of hope
And grown from it
Caught by a trap and the bait,
Was a chance for you
Can you ever know what’s right?
Can you know what’s wrong?
When you know that they’re just two sides
Of the same damn coin

How long do I
Endure this life
Oh before I can be healed?

The real folk blues
Just want to know
I just want to know what happiness is
Don’t you understand
Oh don’t you see
All that glitters is not gold oh

The real folk blues
Just want to know
I just want to know what sadness is
Though you spend your life
Down in the mud
Muddy water ain’t so bad as it seems
If it’s just the once
One round ain’t so bad
