Sad Sad World

Sheryl Crow · Other Songs - Sheryl Crow

I know you hate me, I see that now
If I was unhappy IÂ’d be someone you could still care about
I think itÂ’s stupid and sad that everything turned out so bad
And enemies make the most interesting friends

IÂ’m gonna write you a long letter
IÂ’m gonna get you on a telephone
Three little words to make it all better
Maybe IÂ’ll leave this whole thing alone

ItÂ’s a sad sad world without you in it
And IÂ’m a bad bad girl for letting you down
And I remember every crazy minute
Oh, itÂ’s a sad sad world with out you around

We're to much alike for our own good
We both hate fighting no matter how misunderstood
But I wanna tell you that youÂ’re stubborn
I wanna tell you I never lied
And I wanna tell you that your friends talk way too much
And I wanna know what happened to that friend of mine

ItÂ’s a sad sad world without you in it
And I was a bad bad girl for letting you down
And I remember every crazy minute
Oh, ItÂ’s a sad sad world without you around

Oh, ItÂ’s a sad sad world without you in it
And IÂ’m a bad bad girl for letting you down
I remember every fucked up minute
Oh, ItÂ’s a sad sad world without you around
