The church choir, they only sing the saddest songs I know
On Sundays the church choir sings till all the daylight goes
I sang in the church choir but I only sang for you
The saddest songs I ever knew I sang them just for you

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything

This town is so quiet you are wasted on me
I wish you could leave this town for the cruel world and the city
But I liked it in that sad old town with everyone I loved
My friends and my family sang the saddest songs around

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything

The church choir they only sing the saddest songs I know
On Sundays the church choir sings till al the daylight goes

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything
