Sad Songs

(album: Making A Good Thing Better - 1977)

It's early in the morning
Today I'm moving away
Sitting here for the last time
Makes me feel so strange

My life here has ended
Like a pulled up weed
Don't play no sad songs
They'll make me cry

This situation reminds me
Of when I went away to school
My friends they all called me
And said I've been made a fool

My boyfriend he left me
For my best friend
Ahh don't play no sad songs
They'll make me cry

'Cause sad songs are tearing up my heart again
Loneliness is standing in my path again
I can feel it coming
I can hear it calling out my name

I don't wanna remember
What I'm leaving behind
The radio plays a sad song
And brings it on

Loneliness surrounds me
Like clouds bring rain
Ahh don't play no sad songs
They'll make me cry

'Cause sad songs are tearing up my heart again
Loneliness is standing in my path again
I can feel it coming
I can hear it calling out my name
