Robert Daniel Johnson - The Voice Song Lyrics

My voice is black and blue
My voice is partly true
You made it that way
You made it that way

I couldn't speak for so long
But life went on and on the way
I lived beyond you

Straining to hit all those pretty notes
Believing that I belonged up there
Wondering
I never stopped wondering how

My voice is miles long
And has been driven on
You left it that way
You left it that way

I thought I found a sound to build my songs around
But I was wrong
I was wrong

Straining to hit all those pretty notes
Believing that I belonged up there
Wondering
I never stopped wondering how

I don't know what it was about you
That made me so delirious
I guess that it's mysterious stuff

My voice is black and blue
My voice is coming true
You'd want it that way
You'd want it that way

My song is almost through
I wrote it just for you
Love is beyond me
It is beyond me
