Sad Song Lyrics
As Elton John once sang: "Sad songs say so much" ... what are some of your favorite sad song lyrics? I'll start us off with one from Eric Clapton:
"Would you know my name, if I saw you in heaven? Would it be the same, if I saw you in heaven?" -- Eric Clapton's song – 'Tears In Heaven' – was written by Clapton and Will Jennings after Clapton's 4 year old son, Connor, passed away due to falling out of a high rise window in 1991. Clapton was visibly upset for months after Connor's passing. Listen to the song again, knowing that. Possibly the saddest song ever written.

Re: Sad Song Lyrics
I know that song, Jack...and yes, very sad.
Okay...here's one from me..
Lyrics
It's time for moving on
There's some things you can't forget
It's sinking us like a stone
I just wanna bury it
I wanna watch all my bridges burn
Stand in the rain till the page is turned
Dance in the light of a lesson learned
Lesson learned
I wanna leave everything that hurts
Never go back to the way we were
Set it on fire, baby watch it burn
Watch it burn
Out into the unknown
We traded in our regrets
Not gonna go alone
Cause we're gonna finish this
I wanna watch all my bridges burn
Stand in the rain till the page is turned
Dance in the light of a lesson learned
Lesson learned
I wanna leave everything that hurts
Never go back to the way we were
Set it on fire, baby watch it burn
Watch it burn
Burn it all
Set me free
And let the smoke roll on out
To the sea
I need to find somewhere I
Can believe
I need to know there's a chance
We can be
Burn it all
Set me free
And let the smoke roll on out
To the sea
I need to find somewhere I
Can believe
I need to know there's a chance
We can be
I wanna watch all my bridges burn
Stand in the rain till the page is turned
Dance in the light of a lesson learned
Lesson learned
I wanna leave everything that hurts
Never go back to the way we were
Set it on fire, baby watch it burn
Watch it burn
Okay...here's one from me..

Re: Sad Song Lyrics
"Shadows are fallin' and I'm runnin' out of breath / Keep me in your heart for a while / If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less" – Keep Me In Your Heart, Warren Zevon. ...... You've probably heard this song at a funeral or the sad end of a TV show. Zevon was diagnosed with terminal cancer several weeks before he started recording this album and died two weeks after it's release.

Re: Sad Song Lyrics
Don’t Give Up
Peter Gabriel
In this proud land we grew up strong
We were wanted all along
I was taught to fight, taught to win
I never thought I could fail
No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose dreams have all deserted
I've changed my name, I've changed my face
But no one wants you when you lose
Don't give up
'Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not beaten yet
Don't give up
I know you can make it good
Though I saw it all around
Never thought I could be affected
Thought that we'd be the last to go
It is so strange the way things turn
Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was born, on the lakeside
As daylight broke, I saw the earth
The trees had burned down to the ground
Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up
We don't need much of anything
Don't give up
'Cause…
Rest your head
You worry too much
It's going to be alright
When times get rough
You can fall back on us
Don't give up
Please don't give up
'Got to walk out of here
I can't take anymore
Going to stand on that bridge
Keep my eyes down below
Whatever may come
And whatever may go
That river's flowing
That river's flowing
Moved on to another town
Tried hard to settle down
For every job, so many men
So many men no-one needs
Don't give up
'Cause you have friends
Don't give up
You're not the only one
Don't give up
No reason to be ashamed
Don't give up
You still have us
Don't give up now
We're proud of who you are
Don't give up
You know it's never been easy
Don't give up
'Cause I believe there's a place
There's a place where we belong

"Talkin' to myself and feelin' old / Sometimes I'd like to quit / Nothin' ever seems to fit / Hangin' around / Nothin' to do but frown / Rainy days and Mondays always get me down" – Rainy Days And Mondays, The Carpenters ... Such a beautiful voice -- gone much too soon.

Re: Sad Song Lyrics
Lyrics
Rainin' in my heart
Since we've been apart
I know I was wrong
Baby, please come home
You got me cryin'
'Bout to lose my mind
Don't let me cry in vain
Try my love just once, again
Honey, I need your love
Darlin', you know why
If you would come back home
There'll be no need for me to cry
Raining in my heart
Since we been apart
I know I was wrong
Baby, please come home

Re: Sad Song Lyrics
"For many hours and days that pass ever soon / The tides have caused the flame to dim / At last the arm is straight /the hand to the loom Is this to end or just begin?" – All Of My Love, Led Zeppelin. ...... While the refrain of this song "All of my love, all of my love, all of my love to you" might seem like a romantic song at first, if you listen, it was written for Robert Plant's five year old son, Karac, who died while the band was on tour in '77.

Re: Sad Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Brad Paisley]
She put him out
Like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart
He spent his whole life tryin' to forget
We watched him drink his pain away
A little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough
To get her off his mind
Until the night...
[Chorus:Brad Paisley &Alison Krauss ]
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short, but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said, "I'll love her 'til I die"
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The Angels sang a whiskey lullaby
[Break:Brad Paisley &Alison Krauss]
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
[Verse 2: Alison Krauss]
The rumors flew
But nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years
She tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away
A little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough
To get him off her mind
Until the night..
[Chorus:Brad Paisley &Alison Krauss]
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short, but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the Angels sang a whiskey lullaby
[Outro: Brad Paisley &Alison Krauss]
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la laa

"Can I sail through the changing ocean tides / Can I handle the seasons of my life" – Landslide, Fleetwood Mac. Stevie Nicks was only in her mid-20's when she wrote this bittersweet song, trying to decide if she wanted to pursue college or songwriting.

Re: Sad Song Lyrics
When your day is long
And the night, the night is yours alone
When you're sure you've had enough
Of this life, well hang on
Don't let yourself go
'Cause everybody cries
And everybody hurts sometimes
Sometimes everything is wrong
Now it's time to sing along
When your day is night alone (Hold on, hold on)
If you feel like letting go (Hold on)
If you think you've had too much
Of this life, well hang on
Everybody hurts
Take comfort in your friends
Everybody hurts
Don't throw your hand, oh no
Don't throw your hand
If you feel like you're alone
No, no, no, you are not alone
If you're on your own in this life
The days and nights are long
When you think you've had too much of this life to hang on
Well, everybody hurts sometimes
Everybody cries
Everybody hurts sometimes
And everybody hurts sometimes
So hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Everybody hurts

Tell me, what does it look like in heaven?
Is it peaceful? Is it free like they say?
Does the sun shine bright forever?
Have your fears and your pain gone away?
'Cause here on earth it feels like everything good is missing since you left
And here on earth everything's different, there's an emptiness
Oh-oh, I,
I hope you're dancing in the sky
I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived
So tell me, what do you do up in heaven?
Are your days filled with love and light?
Is there music? Is there art and invention?
Tell me are you happy? Are you more alive?
'Cause here on earth it feels like everything good is missing since you left
And here on earth everything's different, there's an emptiness
Oh-oh, I,
I hope you're dancing in the sky
And I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
And I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived
I hope you're dancing in the sky
And I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
And I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived
Since you arrived
Tell me, what does it look like in heaven?
Is it peaceful? Is it free like they say?
Does the sun shine bright forever?
Have your fears and your pain gone away?
'Cause here on earth it feels like everything good is missing since you left
And here on earth everything's different, there's an emptiness
Oh-oh, I,
I hope you're dancing in the sky
I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived
So tell me, what do you do up in heaven?
Are your days filled with love and light?

'Cause here on earth it feels like everything good is missing since you left
And here on earth everything's different, there's an emptiness
Oh-oh, I,
I hope you're dancing in the sky
And I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
And I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived
I hope you're dancing in the sky
And I hope you're singing in the angel's choir
And I hope the angels know what they have
I'll bet it's so nice up in heaven since you arrived
Since you arrived
