SAD SAD STORY
WRITTEN BY NEIL SEDAKA / HOWARD GREENFIELD

Look at the lady
She's the one with the broken heart
Even so she mustn't know
That I loved her from the start.
She needs a friend now
More than a new romance
I'd love to take her in my arms
But I can't take the chance.

Ooh it's such a sad, sad story
But there'll be a happy ending
Just you wait and see what I can do
When you see a lady cryin'
Can you blame a guy for tryin'
To move on in and make his dreams come true.

I've got a secret
But I'm keepin' it to myself
I'm bored to tears
When my heart hears
That she loves someone else.
I tell her I'm sorry
But it's really just a lie
'Cause every time he hurts her
I'm so happy I could die.

Ooh it's such a sad sad story
But there'll be a happy ending
Just you wait and see what I can do
When you see a lady cryin'
Can you blame a guy for tryin'
To move on in and make his dreams come true.

I love the lady
And I wanna make her smile
I know she's lonely
But it only hurts for a little while.
Soon as it's over
You know the sun is gonna shine
And when she's ready for someone new
Guess who's first in line?

Ooh it's such a sad, sad story
But there'll be a happy ending
Just you wait and see what I can do
What I can do
When you see a lady cryin'
Can you blame a guy for tryin'
To move on in
And make his dreams come true.

Watch me now
Watch me now
Watch me now.

Ooh it's such a sad sad story
But there'll be a happy ending
Just you wait and see what I can do
When you see a lady cryin'
Can you blame a guy for tryin'
To move on in and make his dreams come true.

Say it again
Say it again

Ooh it's such a sad sad story
But there'll be a happy ending
Just you wait and see what I can do
