[Verse 1]

When I'm drivin' down the road I got my radio playin' heartbreak FM

And if I got blue skies, I don't know why but I'd rather see a cloud roll in

Boy, since I met you somethin' in me changed

This ain't what I'm used to, so if it sounds kinda strange

[Chorus]

I write sad songs for sad people, somethin' 'bout the pain

I want every word to hurt like blue eyes cryin' in the rain

They say, "Do what you love," and that's just what I do

I write sad songs for sad people, but I wrote this love song for you

[Verse 2]

I really like the way I really don't hate spending my time with you

And instead of being dеad, my roses are red, and I ain't quitе so blue

I don't wanna run, and I don't want you to leave

I don't sing these kinds of songs, but there's a first time for everything

[Chorus]

I write sad songs for sad people, somethin' 'bout the pain

I want every word to hurt like blue eyes cryin' in the rain

They say, "Do what you love," and that's just what I do

I write sad songs for sad people, but I wrote this love song for you

[Bridge]

I guess it's probably time, I say somethin' 'bout those eyes

And your smile, you know what it does to me

'Cause of you, I got somethin' new to sing

[Chorus]

I write sad songs for sad people, somethin' 'bout the pain

I want every word to hurt like blue eyes cryin' in the rain

They say, "Do what you love," and that's just what I do

I write sad songs, I love sad songs

I write sad songs for sad people, but I wrote this love song for you
