Lyrics

[[Verse 1]

I know a man, don't walk in lines
leans into trouble every time
don't say much, don't need to speak
one look from him--long, hard week

[Chorus]

apple and oranges blues
one cuts deep, one pulls me through
reach for one, I lose the view
I don't know which one's true


[Verse 2]

I know another, soft and slow
laughs like he knows what I don't know
don't hold on, don't push away
just stands there... and lets me stay

[Chorus ]

apple and oranges blues
don't ask me which one I'd choose
walk all night in different shoes
I don't know which one's true

[Break - instrumental]

[Tag / Outro]

apple...
orange too...

both of 'em...
come through...
