It's a happy kind of sadness when I think of you

And a lonely kind of togetherness when your company's the blues

Now all you love has ended as you left me for someone new

It's a happy kind of sadness when I think of you

Well you're happy when you think of all the good times
and the sweet love you had

But you're sad when you want her and she's not there

It's a happy kind of sadness when her love turns cold

Oh I laughed and made jokes about it but there's one joke that I ain't told

Oh how I cried all the nights long if that's so funny why am I so blue

It's a happy kind of sadness when I think of you

[ steel ]

Well you're happy...
