So Much For My Sad Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The first thought through my sleepy head
When I fell out of my bed
Is "I hope the sky is gray,
I'm gonna write a sad song today."
So I make up my mind, slip on my shoes
I'm gonna pick up a paper and read the news
'Cause I'm sure to find plenty 'nuff blues
To write my sad song
But when I open the door and the sun spills through
Takes away my breath and I think of you
And the only blues to hit my eyes
Are those beautiful blues in the clear blue sky!
So much for my sad song
So much for my sorry attitude
Let's make this a love song instead
'Cause I'm so in love with you
C'mon let's go out and play
Save the sad song for another day
No time for tears, I'm wearin' a smile
So much for my sad song
So I pick up the news like I said I would
Drop my jaw right where I stood
'Cause the headline reads: "All The News Is Good,
Because Love Is On The Way!"
And love floods the world right before my eyes
Everybody is dancin' and slappin' high fives
And such beautiful music fills the skies
And we all sing along
And now I snap out of my daydream
And I can't believe how real it seems
But I keep on dancin' anyway
'Cause it's turning out to be a marvelous day!
So much for my sad song
So much for my sorry attitude
Let's make this a love song instead
'Cause I'm so in love with you
C'mon let's go out and play
Save the sad song for another day
No time for tears, I'm wearin' a smile
So much for my sad song
Sometimes I measure my day
By how many things go my way
And when things go wrong I usually get mad
But this time I'm glad that my song didn't turn out sad
