When I’m driving down the road I got my radio playing heartbreak FM
And if I got blue skies, I don’t know why but I’d rather see a cloud roll in
Boy, since I met you something in me changed
This ain’t what I’m used to, so if it sounds kinda strange
I write sad songs for sad people, something ’bout the pain
I want every word to hurt like blue eyes crying in the rain
They say, “Do what you love,” and that’s just what I do
I write sad songs for sad people
But I wrote this love song for you
I really like the way I really don’t hate spending my time with you
And instead of being dead, my roses are red, and I ain’t quite so blue
I don’t wanna run, and I don’t want you to leave
I don’t sing these kinds of songs, but there’s a first time for everything
I write sad songs for sad people, something ’bout the pain
I want every word to hurt like blue eyes crying in the rain
They say, “Do what you love,” and that’s just what I do
I write sad songs for sad people
But I wrote this love song for you
I guess it’s probably time
I say something ’bout those eyes
And your smile, you know what it does to me
‘Cause of you I got something new to sing
I write sad songs for sad people, something ’bout the pain
I want every word to hurt like blue eyes crying in the rain
They say, “Do what you love,” and that’s just what I do
I write sad songs
I love sad songs
I write sad songs for sad people
But I wrote this love song for you
