how sad

they meet in a cafe

it's love at first sight

they sit there the whole day

they talk there the whole day

they're gonna get married

they're tying the knot

they're giving it everything

yeah all that they've got

how sad we were to hear your news

how much you had

so much to lose

how sweet the bird that sings the blues away

they borrow some money to buy a big house

with doves in the garden

with doves in the garden

they're gonna be happy

they're sure about that

they're gonna have children

two dogs and a cat

how sad we were to hear your news

how much you had

so much to lose

how sweet the bird that sings the blues away

yeah oh yeah yeah yeah oh yeah

how sad we were to hear your news

how much you had

so much to lose

how sweet the bird that sings the blues away
