| «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»
|
| 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 I’m all alone)
|
| Just 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 daughters 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 I’m all alone)
|
| Just put the needle on the record
|
| And if only for one second
|
| It’s enough
|
| You only like the sad songs?
|
| Well 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 I’m all alone)
|
| Just 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
|
| Here’s a sad song for you, my love
|
| For you, my love |
