A faded portrait
A telephone call
That came too late
The missing piece
Of a photograph
A walk in the rain
That never stops
These are the things
That make me sad
To find the letters
That were never sent
To say the words
That were never meant
To stare at the sunset
From a moving train
To watch the feather
Drifting in the wind
And then realize
That life is the same
When you know
You should stay
But you said goodbye
When your heart is breaking
But you have to smile
When you ask yourself
The reason why
And find no answers
You could almost cry
For the smallest sins
That were not forgiven
For the acts of kindness
That were easily forgotten
For the faith and promises
That wouldn’t last
For the ghosts of the past
It’s just too bad
These are the things
That make me sad...
That make me sad...
