Sad-Glad Song - original song

You say you want me to sing you a sad song
Well here it is
I don't think I've been a bad boy
I was just a victim of bliss
I suppose it's going to end now
But when did it start?
I was just a note in your diary
You chewed up my heart

Are you going to spit it out and
give it back to me?
I want to scream and shout out your name and
Cast out this misery

This is a glad song
A smile from my heart
No you can't have your sad song
I want to make a new start

I'd like to remember the feel of you
As snowflakes gently fell
Stumbling and falling up that hill
Laughter and smiles you looked so well

I didn't know where we were going
And I didn't give a damn
I don't think I even realised it was snowing
As we danced upwards hand in hand

This is a glad song
A smile from my heart
No you can't have your sad song
I want to make a new start

You say you want me to sing you a sad song
I won't do that
I don't think I've been a bad boy

Had to come back...this song is very moving

[assaglioli]

This is an intelligent and unusual song, very atmospheric.Don't take this the wrong way but it reminds me of babyshambles a bit, thats meant to be a compliment!*****

Top tune Mr Young. Great feel and vid. All fits together like a box of Swiss made Lego. Especially like the lyrics to this one too. Don't get me wrong - I'm not afraid to give you a 4 or even a 3 if needs be...But, another 5 from me. Don't get complacent though, we're always watching... ;o)
