I don´t know how to write you a song That says, I´m sorry, I know I was wrong I can´t find the words that don´t make it cheap It´s right on the verge and just out of reach
It must be a sad song with a blue melody And I´ll bet you it´s lonesome, as lonesome as can be But I´m starting to wonder if there´s such a thing As a sad song that´s too sad to sing
Maybe tonight, maybe this time tomorrow Me and this guitar will get right with this sorrow And I´ll play it for you, and you´ll come back to me ´Cause you were always a fool for the blue melodies
So it must be a sad song in three quarter time That chills down to the bone when the steel guitars cry
But if it´s not the one that brings you home to me Then it´s just a sad song that´s too sad to sing
Awe but if it´s not the one that brings you back to me Then it´s just a sad song that´s too sad to sing
