The church choir

They only sing the saddest songs i know

On Sundays the church choir sings

Till all the daylight goes


I sang in the church choir

But i only sang for you

The saddest songs i ever knew

I sang them just for you


The saddest songs

I know where they come from

Those sad old songs we sing

Always mean everything


This town is so quiet

You are wasted on me

I wish you could leave this town

For the cruel world and the city

But i liked it in that sad old town

With everyone i loved

My friends and my family sang

The saddest songs around


The saddest songs

I know where they come from

Those sad old songs we sing

Always mean everything


The church choir

They only sing the saddest songs i know

On Sundays the church choir sings

Till all the daylight goes


The saddest songs

I know where they come from

Those sad old songs we sing

Always mean everything


The saddest songs

I know where they come from

Those sad old songs we sing

Always mean everything
