Melanie Safka - The Saddest Thing lyrics

rate me

And the saddest thing

Under the sun above

Is to say goodbye

To the ones you love.

All the things

That I have known

Became my life

My very own.

But before you know,

You say goodbye, oh!

O, Time, goodbye!

It's time to cry!

But I will

Not weep

Nor make

A scene.

I just say:

"Thank you, Life,

For having been."

And the hardest thing

Under the sun above

Is to say goodbye

To the ones you love.

No!

I will not weep!

Nor make a scene!

I'm gonna say:

"Thank you life!"

"For having been!

And the loudest cry

Under the sun above

Is the silent goodbye

From the ones you love.
