Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] We met on a Tuesday Rain on your red coat sleeves You laughed at my bad jokes Like you already knew me You said "Name's Keeley" I said it twice so it would stay Now it's carved on every barstool Every slow song I play [Chorus] Keeley Keeley Why you keep me so blue? Got this old heart leaning Like it’s missing a shoe Keeley Keeley I still talk to that empty room If you ever come back Darling Bring some sunlight to this gloom (hey) [Verse 2] Your coffee cup's still on the counter Lipstick ring half gone That crooked little Polaroid I leave the porch light on These walls remember your footsteps My shirts remember your scent I remember saying "forever" You remember how you left [Chorus] Keeley Keeley Why you keep me so blue? Every clock in this house Stopped the day I lost you Keeley Keeley I still hum your favorite tune If you ever come back Darling Bring some sunlight to this gloom [Bridge] Maybe you're out there laughing At some old movie line Maybe you don't think about me But you still live in my mind I pour two drinks in the evening Then I drink yours too To the ghost of a girl named Keeley And the man she once rode with through [Chorus] Keeley Keeley Why you keep me so blue? Got my pride in my pocket Got my soul in my shoes Keeley Keeley If you're hearing this truth I was born a little broken But I was whole there next to you

Laid‑back electric blues in a slow 12/8 groove, warm tube amp grit, male vocals. Verse sits on a smoky trio feel—guitar, upright bass, brushed snare—then the chorus swells with organ pads and a touch of reverb-soaked call-and-response backing vocals. Occasional bent-string guitar fills answer the vocal lines, with a short, tasteful solo section implied on the turnarounds., blues
