Guess there are times when we all need
To share a little pain
And ironin' out the rough spots
Is the hardest part when memories remain
And it's times like these
When we all need to hear the radio
'Cause from the lips of some old singer
We can share the troubles we already know
Turn 'em on, turn 'em on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone (Ah)
Why don't you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh-oh-oh
Just feel their gentle touch (Gentle touch)
When all hope is gone (Ooh)
Sad songs say so much
If someone else is suffering enough
Oh, to write it down
When every single word makes sense
Then it's easier to have those songs around
The kick inside is in the line
That finally gets to you
And it feels so good to hurt so bad
And suffer just enough to sing the blues
So turn 'em on, turn 'em on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone (Ah)
Why don't you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh-oh-oh
Just feel their gentle touch (Gentle touch)
When all hope is gone (Ooh)
You know sad songs say so much
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say (Ah)
Sad songs, they say so much
So, turn 'em on (Turn 'em on)
Oh, turn 'em on (Turn 'em on)
Turn on those sad songs (Sad songs)
When all hope is gone (Ah)
Why don't you tune in and turn them on?
They reach into your room, oh-oh-oh
Just feel their gentle touch (Gentle touch)
When all hope is gone (Ooh)
You know sad songs say so much
When all hope is gone
You know sad songs say so much
(Ooh, la-la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la-la)
When every little bit of hope is gone
Sad songs say so much
(Ooh, la-la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la-la)
When every little bit of hope is gone
Sad songs say so much
(Ooh, la-la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la-la)
When all hope is gone
Sad songs say so much
(Ooh, la-la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la-la)
When every little bit of hope is gone
Sad songs say so much
(Ooh, la-la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la-la)
When everything you do is goin' wrong
Sad songs say so much
(Ooh, la-la-la-la, ooh, la-la-la-la)
