The Idle Race
Please No More Sad Songs
[Verse 1]
Yes, she's leaving on the train
Never coming back again
The lines go far ahead
Got a job fixed in the city
Wants to be a star, she's pretty
And I don't get a part

[Chorus]
So please, no more sad songs
I've heard enough today
Isn't it nice, holding you tight?
Remember?

[Verse 2]
Left a note here on the floor
Where she used to knock the door
I found when I got home
Said you're gonna be a singer
Be a star, a real swinger
I hope it's very nice

[Chorus]
So please, no more sad songs
I've heard enough today
Isn't it nice, holding you tight?
Remember?
[Bridge]
Thought she was joking
When I looked around
Went to her room
And saw her things had gone
She must have flown
Ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah

[Verse 3]
Yes, she's left upon the train
Never coming back again
The lines went far away
Got her job in the big city
She became a star, so pretty
Now I don't know her name

[Chorus]
So please, no more sad songs
I've heard enough today
Isn't it nice, holding you tight?
Remember?

[Chorus]
So please, no more sad songs
I've heard enough today
Isn't it nice, holding you tight?
Remember?
Isn't it nice, holding you tight?
Remember?
