Sad Song

There’s memories and then there’s a memory that

Wraps you up and never lets you go

There’s melodies and then there’s a melody that

Keeps a door open somewhere in your soul

Sometimes you hold things closer

Once you know it’s over

Maybe it was all about timing

Or we ran out of words worth rhyming

Maybe it was hard to let it go

'Cause we said goodbye on a high note

Maybe that’s how it was meant to be

Maybe we didn’t do a damn thing wrong

'Cause all the best records go out on a sad song

Something beautiful is still something beautiful

Even when it makes you cry

I hope you stop and smile

Even just for a little while if I ever cross your mind, oh

Maybe it was all about timing

Or we ran out of words worth rhyming

Maybe it was hard to let it go

'Cause we said goodbye on a high note

Maybe that’s how it was meant to be, yeah

Maybe we didn’t do a damn thing wrong

'Cause all the best records go out on a sad song

Sometimes you hold things closer

Once you know it’s over

Maybe it was all about timing

Or we ran out of words worth rhyming

Looking back I don’t know why we let it go

But we said goodbye on a high note

Maybe that’s how it was meant to be, yeah

Maybe we didn’t do a damn thing wrong

'Cause all the best records

All the best records

All the best records

Yeah, they do
