Sad Songs by Maggie Gently

On the days when it rains I justify just staying upstairs and
I’m praying for the storm clouds

When I count the remains of the money I’ve saved in the last six years, I
I feel like such a letdown

There are things I still won’t admit to myself
It’s almost spring and all I have to show for it
Yeah all I have to show for it are

Sad songs I learned all the words to
Reruns I know won’t make me think too hard

If I reminisce on how it used to be, time slips away from me
I slip away from me

I can count all the ways I should be proud of what I have but
It’s hard to give permission

When I dream of the day that I’ll look back on this and laugh it
Just feels like superstition

There are things I still won’t admit to myself
It’s almost spring and all I have to show for it
Yeah all I have to show for it are

Sad songs I learned all the words to
Reruns I know won’t make me think too hard

If I reminisce on how it used to be, time slips away from me
I slip away from me

I’m taking stock of all the parts of me that I’ll cling onto
The pieces that I’ll bring along to the other side
After all the

Sad songs I learned all the words to
Reruns I know won’t make me think too hard
If I reminisce on how it used to be, time slips away from me
I slip away from me
