|
Sing a song of sad young men |
|
Glasses full of rye |
|
All the news is bad again |
|
Kiss your dreams goodbye |
|
All the sad young men |
|
Sitting in the bars |
|
Knowing neon lights |
|
And missing all the stars |
|
All the sad young men |
|
Drifting through the town |
|
Drinking up the night |
|
Trying not to drown |
|
All the sad young men |
|
Singing in the cold |
|
Trying to forget |
|
That they're growing old |
|
All the sad young men |
|
Choking on their youth |
|
Trying to be brave |
|
Running from the truth |
|
Autumn turns the leaves to gold |
|
Slowly dies the heart |
|
Sad young men are growing old |
|
That's the cruelest part |
|
All the sad young men |
|
Seek a certain smile |
|
Someone they can hold |
|
For a little while |
|
Tired little girl |
|
Does the best she can |
|
Trying to be gay |
|
For a sad young man |
|
While the grimy moon |
|
Watches from above |
|
All the sad young men |
|
Play at making love |
|
Misbegotten moon |
|
Shine for sad young men |
|
Let your gentle light |
|
Guide them home tonight |
|
All the sad young men |
