Verse 1:
She's always singin'
A sad song
She tells me nothin'
When I ask her what's wrong?
But she's no liar
And it don't take long
Before she's singin'
Another sad song
Baby's got a radio
And she keeps it on
Specially in the evening
And just before dawn
When the light's uncertain
And the shadows grown long
She's always singin'
A sad song

Chorus:
And I know it don't make no sense
Sometimes
That's just the way it is
Sign of the times?
But I promise you this
No lies
And all I can give
My life

Verse 2:
With the snow falling down
she says there's no good songs
About winter
Unless you like Christmas songs
And I don't
She said I think that's the
Saddest thing ever
I should write a song about
That but I won't
Drive to work in the morning
With the headlights on
Home in the rearview
It's just going going gone
How come songs about hometowns
Are always the saddest ones?
She always asks around midnight
And how come we sing along?


Verse 3:
She's always singing
A sad song
Every time I come around
She says baby it ain't you it's
Just the sound of thunder
Is such an awful lone some sound
And I feel like singin'
A sad song
with you right by my side
Cause a sad song
Ain't always a bad thing
And that's the way i feel tonight
