This is a mellow and jazzy folk blues tune with a lyrical theme of simply listening to the concerns of a friend and trying to be a shoulder to cry on, so to speak.
lyrics
Sweet Sadness
She has sweet, sweet sadness,
She don’t know that it’s true.
She has such sweet sadness,
Now she’s gone and made me feel it too.
She comes to me in the morning,
Hoping I can shed a little light,
Here’s the thing, yeah the irony,
I’m like a covered lantern, the lights inside,
She has sweet, sweet sadness,
She don’t know that it’s true.
She has sweet, sweet sadness,
Now she’s gone and made me feel it too.
She says she don’t believe in true love,
Hasn’t felt it, not by a country mile,
While I know a little about that feeling,
Yeah, I know I’d like to see that girl smile.
She has sweet, sweet sadness,
She don’t know that it’s true.
She has sweet, sweet sadness,
Now she’s gone and made me feel it too.
Hold on Jennifer, hold on girl,
Hold on Jennifer, to your world,
Hold on Jennifer, hold on girl,
Hold on Jennifer, hold on girl.
She has such sweet sadness,
She don’t know that it’s true.
She has sweet, sweet sadness,
Now she’s gone and made me feel it too.
Now she’s gone and made me feel it too.
Now she’s gone and made me feel it too.
