Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Look in my eyes
You'll see that I'm a guy who
Tried the blues on for size
It only takes one glance
And a fool would be wise
There's a sad, sad, sad story here
Oh, and I've been wanting to tell you
[Verse 2]
Just watch me close
I'll knock around all over town
From penner to post
I never laugh, I only half
Half smile at the most
There's a sad, real sad, sad story here
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3]
Now I had a love
But I did the girl wrong so much until
Push came to shove
Now the girl is gone and I'm
A real victim of
This sad, sad, sad story here
Uh-huh, oh, yeah, uh-huh
[Verse 4]
I never knew how much love really mattered
But now she's gone and my whole world's been shattered
Ooh, oh, and the pieces made me dark
I got to get you back, baby, unless my
Life is dependent
[Verse 5]
You and you alone can add such a
Such a happy ending
To this sad, sad, sad, sad story here
Oh, yeah, oh, and every day it seems to get a little sadder
Ooh, baby
Every day the pain seems to hurt just a little badder
Oh, yeah
