Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The day hums quiet like a taped-up note
But one loose chord keeps ringing in my throat
A minor breeze sneaks under every door
I hush the strings... they shiver even more
[Pre-Chorus]
I mute the keys, the hammer falls
Silence cracks, a rhythm crawls
A melody I never called
keeps writing in the air
[Chorus]
I don't want you to be a sad song
But what's playing in my head is feeling sad now
Your words brought a verse and then a sound out
But, I don't want you to be a sad song
Mmmm
I don't want you to be a sad song
[Verse 2]
I change the key, rewrite the rhyme
Still feel the ache keeping it's time
Ink refuses to stay well
Your name spills out... on every staff I spell
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I fight the swell, the strings reply
The room itself begins to cry
I know harmony doesn't lie
With the emotion inside
[Chorus]
I don't want you to be a sad song
But what's playing in my head is feeling sad now
Your words brought a verse and then a sound out
But, I don't want you to be a sad song
Mmmm
I don't want you to be a sad song
[Bridge]
And I know once the song is made it's over
I'll hear the melody and never recover
I don't want to make you a sad song
But here I am with a sad song
[Chorus]
I don't want you to be a sad song
But what's playing in my head is feeling sad now
Mmmm
Your words brought a verse and then a sound out
But, I don't want you to be a sad song
Mmmm
I don't want you to be a sad song
[Outro]
And I know once the song is made it's over
I'll hear the melody and never recover
I don't want to make you a sad song
But here I am with a sad song
