Wrote this after watching a few David Lynch movies. The original version is on The Rest Are Details.

lyrics

BABY BLUE

Hazel eyes led me as I walked through the door
I’d been told I’d had enough but I wanted more
Louie Malle cased me as I entered the room
And a dancer she danced as I whistled her a tune

This was a place appropriately named crime
The owner she told me they do these kinda things all the time
I was introduced to a woman named Precious
She told me this place can get you down but the food in delicious

I’m in love with Baby Blue
If you saw her you’d love her too
She may not be a pretty as you
But she’s my Baby Blue

I followed her to a room where woman danced in pairs
She smiled and left standing at the foot of the stair
I went up to find Hope waiting in the hall
And Hope didn’t see me coming at all

I’m in love with Baby Blue
If you were her I’d love you too
She may not be a pretty as you
But she’s my Baby Blue

She asked me what I’d do if all else failed
I said I want to know her thoughts the rest are details
She said well you must have been ill-advised
Then she smiled in a way I recognized

I’m in love with Baby Blue
If you were her I’d love you too
She may not be a witty as you
But she’s my Baby Blue
