Guess I got what I deserved
Kept you waiting there too long, my love
All that time without a word
Didn't know you'd think that I'd forget or I'd regret
The special love I had for you, my baby blue
All the days became so long
Did you really think, I'd do you wrong?
Dixie, when I let you go
Thought you'd realize that I would know
I would show the special love I have for you, my baby blue
What can I do, what can I say
Except I want you by my side
How can I show you, show me the way
Don't you know the times I've tried?
Guess that's all I have to say
Except the feeling just grows stronger every day
Just one thing before I go
Take good care, baby, let me know, let it grow
The special love you have for me, my Dixie, dear.
Kept you waiting there too long, my love
All that time without a word
Didn't know you'd think that I'd forget or I'd regret
The special love I had for you, my baby blue

Dixie, when I let you go
Thought you'd realize that I would know
I would show the special love I have for you, my baby blue
Except I want you by my side
How can I show you, show me the way
Don't you know the times I've tried?
Except the feeling just grows stronger every day
Just one thing before I go
Take good care, baby, let me know, let it grow
The special love you have for me, my Dixie, dear.

This song is written about a girl named Dixie whom vocalist Pete Ham met while on a 1971 U.S. Tour stop in Wichita, Kansas. When the group returned home to England, they broke up, but maintained that they would keep in touch with each other. The line "All that time without a word, Didn't know you'd think that I'd forget or I'd regret, The special love I had for you, my baby blue" was written because he hadn't seen her for a few months and he thought Dixie was angry. And the rest is self-explanatory. He loved Dixie!
Could there be a song more perfect for the ending of one of the best drama's ever?
More depressing story: Walter White or Badfinger?
definitely Walter White
definitely Walter White
@thebigpeezy yes but WW finally lived his life after years of suppressing his talents

just finished BrBa. I gotta say WW but the song at the end of the show made me even more depressed. the song made me forget the Heisenberg side of WW. Was WW's love for the meth or for his family? He was back to WW at that point

one of my favourite badfinger songs.
Crystal blue, i love you
Not your typical song by a rocker to some chick he met on the road, of which there are plenty. When he gives the "chick" a name, and the name is Dixie, I don't know why, but it gets me every time, and my eyes well up. And its perfect use in the final Breaking Bad scene elevated it even further. A truly superior song.
I absolutely love
I absolutely love this song. My name is in it. Dixie
