LYRICS

Here before me

My plain soul

Here in my hands

The money that makes it play

Well, as I play these numbers

They remind me of you

Oh yes, the titles tell me why

I'm blue

Number Eight, twenty-nine

He's gone, no more he's mine

Number three, twenty-three

To my heart he'll hold the key

Number Eight, seventeen

Darlin' you, you are my dream

Oh yes, the titles tell me why

I'm blue

Number Eight, twenty-nine

He's gone, no more he's mine

Number three, twenty-three

To my heart you hold the key

What hurts most of all

Number Eight, twenty-two

When he says

"Darlin', I love you"
