Lyrics

[Verse 1] Come on and put your arms around me Get familiar, do I wish someone would look at me The way I try not to look at you [Pre-Chorus] Turn off the radio, don't wanna hear Tell them go and talk in someone else's ear [Chorus] 'Cause it's a sad old world tonight Baby, it's a sad old world tonight [Verse 2] Come on and take a liberty Why I wish you would How come no one ever told you that It's bad for you to be so good [Pre-Chorus] Don't read the headlines, it's bad for your eyes Listening to rumors don't make wisemen wiser [Chorus] 'Cause it's a sad old world tonight Baby, it's a sad old world tonight [Verse 3] (Mmhmm) Every time we get to be alone It seems the world is sittin' on your shoulder If you can't forget, won't you please let me hold you? Let's get together before we get older (Ahh, nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah) (Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah) (Ahh, nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah) (Nah-nah-nah, nah-nah-nah) (Nah-nah-nah) [Pre-Chorus] Don't read the headlines, it's bad for your eyes Listening to rumors don't make my wisemen wiser [Chorus] 'Cause it's a sad old world tonight Baby, it's a sad old world tonight [Verse 4] (Mmhmm) Come on, why don't you look at me? I knew you could Why keep thinkin' that the world outside When inside it can be so good [Pre-Chorus] Turn off the radio, leave on the light Maybe we'll do some work on current affairs tonight [Chorus] 'Cause it's a sad old world tonight Baby, it's a sad old world tonight Baby, it's a sad old world tonight Baby, it's a sad old world tonight [Outro] (Ahh, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo) (doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo) Sad (Ahh, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo) (Doo-doo-doo) Mmhmm sad (Doo-doo-doo) (Ahh, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo) (Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo) Mmm sad old world tonight (Ahh, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo) (Doo-doo-doo) Oo-ooh Sad (Doo-doo-doo) (Ahh, doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo) Sad (Doo-doo-doo) Oo-ooh Sad (Doo-doo-doo)
