It's Sad To Belong
B.J. Thomas · Other Songs - B.J. Thomas
You were mindin' your life
And I was mindin' mine too
Lady when you looked my way
I had a strange sensation
And darlin' that's when I knew
That it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Oh I wake up in the night
And I reach beside me hopin' you will be there
But instead I find someone
Who believed in me when I said I'd always care
Oh it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
So I lived my life in a dream world
For the rest of my days
Just you and me walkin' hand in hand
In a wishful memory
Oh I guess that's all that it would ever be
Wish I had a time machine I could
Make myself go back until the day I was born
And I would live my life again
And rearrange it so that I'd be yours from now on
Oh it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Oh it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Yes it's sad to belong to someone else
When the right one comes along
Oh it's sad
Oh it's sad
Oh it's sad
Oh it's sad
