[Verse 1]
First thought through my sleepy head
When I fell out of my bed is I
Hope the sky is gray, I'm gonna write a sad song today
So I make up my mind, slip on my shoes
I'm gonna pick up a paper and read the news
Cause I'm sure to find plenty 'nuff blues to write my sad song
But when I open the door and the sun spills through
Takes away my breath and I think of you
And the only blues that hit my eyes
Are those beautiful blues in the clear blue sky

[Chorus]
So much for my sad song
So much for my sorry attitude
Let's make this a love song instead
Cause I'm so in love with you
Come on let's go out and play
Save the sad song for another day
No time for tears
I'm wearing a smile

[Post-Chorus]
So much for my sad song
So much for my sad song
[Verse 2]
So I pick up the news like I said I would
Drop my jaw right where I stood
'Cause the headline reads all the news is good because love is on the way
And love floods the world right before my eyes
Everybody is dancing and slapping high-fives
And such beautiful music fills the sky and we all sing along
And now I snap out of my daydream
And I can't believe how real it seems
But I keep on dancing anyway
It's turning out to be a beautiful day

[Chorus]
So much for my sad song
So much for my sorry attitude
Let's make this a love song instead
Cause I'm so in love with you
Come on let's go out and play
Save the sad song for another day
No time for tears
I'm wearing a smile

[Post-Chorus]
So much for my sad song
So much for my sad song
[Bridge]
Sometimes I measure my day by how many things go my way
And when things go wrong I usually get mad
But this time I'm glad my song that didn't turn out sad
