All the music I love

All the music I love
it comes from there, it comes from the blues
Words are never the same
to express what blues is
 
I put my joys there, I put my sorrows there
and it all becomes the blues
I sing it as much as I love it
and I will sing it always
 
A long time ago, on guitars
black hands gave birth to it
to sing the sufferings and hopes
to sing God and love too
 
Music will stay alive as long as the blues lives
 
The blues, that means that I love you
and it's an agony1
I cry, but I still sing,
this is my prayer to keep you
 
All the music I love
it comes from there, it comes from the blues
Words are never the same
to express what blues is
 
I put my joys there, I put my sorrows there
and it all becomes the blues
I sing it as much as I love it
and I will sing it always
 
A long time ago, on guitars
black hands gave birth to it
to sing the sufferings and hopes
to sing God and love too
 
Music will stay alive as long as the blues lives
 
The blues, that means that I love you
and it's an agony
I cry, but I still sing,
this is my prayer to keep you
 
All the music I love
it comes from there, it comes from the blues
Words are never the same
to express what blues is2
