Tonight I can't sleep
It's the very first time
That I know you're far from me
And the emptiness never ends

It comes from I-don't-know-where
It's like a counter in my head

It comes from I-don't-know-where, it's like a counter in my head
It takes me, it drives me crazy, it's like a pick-up in my head

I only think about that
Four, three, two, one, I play music
I breathe music
I think music
I cry in music
And when I panic
I play the electric bass

I play music
I feel the music
I make love in music
I love you in music
And when I panic
I plug in my electric guitar

It springs from everywhere, it's like a volcano in my head
Sometimes I don't know about you, but it calms my storms

Ooh, when I lose my bearings, hey
Four, three, two, one, I play music
I breathe music
I think music
I cry in music
And when I panic
I play the electric bass

I play music
I feel the music
I make love in music
I love you in music
And when I panic
I plug in my electric guitar

Come make music
Breathe the music
We'll make love in music
Love in music
And if it gets complicated
We cross our electric guitars

All the music, that I love
It comes from there it comes from the blues
The words are never the same
To express what the blues is

I put my joys in it, I put my sorrows in it
And all that becomes the blues
I sing it as much as I love it
And I will always sing it

A long time ago on guitars
Black hands gave it birth
To sing sorrows and hopes
To sing God and then love
Music will live as long as the blues live

Come make music
Breathe the music
It's really the music
It's us the music
Even if you leave us
We play the electric guitar
Come make music
Breathe the music
It's really the music
It's us the music
Even if you leave us
We play the electric guitar
Come make music
