Sad Songs Say So Much
When the Sun surrenders the sky to the Moon,
and the stars reawake in its gloom,
sad songs say so much
When the flames of a love smolder in smoke,
and there's no longer a fire to stoke,
sad songs say so much
When the heart and breath both become frail,
and life passes beyond the veil,
sad songs say so much
When hope is too high in the depths of despair,
and life is too much to bear,
sad songs say so much
When the blooms of life wilt and decay,
and you can't press on, you can only press play,
sad songs say so much
