Sad Songs

"I lost her in 1978"

He tells me then looks away

It's simple he loved her so

A tenderness you can't let go

He said

"Son you don't forget your first true love

She won't forget you too"

I only like the sad songs

(From the rock bands no one knows)

No one gets me like the sad songs

(When I'm lost and I'm all alone)

Just put the needle on the record

And if only for one second

It's enough

Her father he arranged

The marriage

And he gave away

His daughters heart for goodness sake

What a shame what a big mistake

A daughter's heart's not a good one to break

So I said "love it has no age

Just wait, you'll find someone who will call you 'baby'"

I only like the sad songs

(From the rock bands no one knows)

No one gets me like the sad songs

(When I'm lost and I'm all alone)

Just put the needle on the record

And if only for one second

It's enough

You only like the sad songs?

Well here's a sad song for you my love

I only like the sad songs

(From the rock bands no one knows)

No one gets me like the sad songs

(When I'm lost and I'm all alone)

Just put the needle on the record

And if only for one second

It's enough

You only like the sad songs

You only like the sad songs

You say you like the sad songs

Here's a sad song for you my love

For you my love
