The Sadness
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.
Baby I'm sure you know I didn't wanna walk home alone
Baby I'd play some records but you've ruined every one I own
And if I could only rest my head for a while and not dream of you
A bittersweet moment of solitude now you made me miss you
The sadness is the hardest part of loving you
Like a gambling soul whose lost his doe on a one horse race
Oh boy you leave me blue
Seems like there's nothing I can do
Baby was it something wrong I've done or something stupid that I said
Baby did I drink too much for you to share my bed?
You know I never was the jealous kind but I wonder where you've gone tonight?
My imaginations running wild now you've made me miss you
The sadness is the hardest part of loving you
Like a gambling soul whose lost his doe on a one horse race
Oh boy you leave me blue
Since I've been missing you
Why don't you dial my number
Tell me that you're sorry and you're on your way
Well I'll be waiting with the lights on
Talking to myself saying it was yesterday
The sadness is the hardest part of loving you
Like a gambling soul whose lost his doe on a one horse race
Oh boy you leave me blue
Boy you leave me blue
No there's nothing I can do
Boy you leave me blue
Since I've been missing you
Seems like there's nothing I can do
