Sad Songs Lyrics

"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, no."
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 all alone.)
I 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 daughter's 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 all alone.)
I put the needle on the record,
And if only for one second, it's enough.
You only like the sad songs.
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 all alone.)
I 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.
E~ Dm~
Here's a sad song for you, my love.
A~
For you, my love.
