About the Song
Joni Mitchell first recorded this song on her iconic 1971 "Blue" album.
I am on a lonely road and I am traveling, traveling, traveling, traveling Looking for something, what can it be? Oh, I hate you some, I hate you some, I love you some Oh, I love you when I forget about me I wanna be strong, I wanna laugh along I wanna belong to the living Alive, alive, I want to get up and jive I want to wreck my stockings in some jukebox dive Do you want, do you want, do you wanna dance with me baby? Do you wanna take a chance on Maybe finding some sweet romance with me, baby? Well come onAll I really, really want our love to do Is to bring out the best in me and in you too All I really, really want our love to do Is to bring out the best in me and in you I wanna talk to you, I wanna shampoo you Wanna renew you again and again Applause, applause, life is our cause When I think of your kisses my mind see-saws Do you see, do you see, do you see how you hurt me, baby? So I hurt you too Then we both get so blue
I am on a lonely road and I am traveling Looking for the key to set me free Oh the jealousy The greed is the unraveling it's the unraveling And it undoes all the joy that could be I wanna have fun, I wanna shine like the sun Wanna be the one that you want to see I wanna knit you a sweater I wanna write you a love letter I wanna make you feel better I wanna make you feel free, hmm hm hmm hm Wanna make you feel all free I wanna make you feel free
