about

“Take a sad song and make it better”, Season 3, Round 25, December 2018

lyrics

Oh, why do sad songs always sound so good?
You haven't called in a while, but I wish you would
Turn the lights down low, and the music up
I made a mess, I over-poured my cup
Tell me, why do sad songs always sound so right?
At the end of the bar, at the end of the night?
Play some old George Jones, he's singing my pain
Cause I know that you're never coming back again

Sometimes you got to just sit and cry
To get to the feeling deep inside

Oh, why do sad songs always fill that hole?
You know, I love to get down, love to rock'n'roll
But when you get real quiet and you sing real sweet
It moves my soul and it makes my heart beat
Tell me, why do sad songs always make me glad?
Had me spinning around, down the road and back
Found myself at the edge of a happening scene
But I never found a truth which I could believe

Sometimes you got to just sit and cry
To get to the feeling deep inside
Sometimes a sad song is what it takes
You can't start healing till your heart breaks
