Lyrics for Song: What a Song
Lyrics for Album: Home Grown [Mercury] [1997]
(Tom T. Hall)
You know they played that melody the first time that you danced with me
And way back then I didn't even know the words
Then they played that sing again when our love came to an end
It was the saddest happy song I ever heard.
What a song, what a song, you know I've heard it for so long
You know it seems to be the theme song from my whole life
A simple tune, simple lines but every time it comes to mind
I always think, oh, what a song, what a song.
--- Instrumental ---
Well, I don't know who made it up I only know the way it touched
The very heart and soul of me with every note
When everything it said and done when all the other songs are sung
I hope they play the greatest song they ever wrote.
What a song, what a song, you know I've heard it for so long
You know it seems to be the theme song from my whole life
A simple tune, simple lines but every time it comes to mind
I always think, oh, what a song, what a song...
