Guess there are times

When we all need to share a little pain

And ironing out the rough spotsIs 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

(Ahhh) Why don't you tune in and turn them on?

They reach into your room

Whoa-ho-ho-ho just feel their gentle touch (gentle touch)

When all hope is gone

(Oohhh) 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

(Ahhh) Why don′t you tune in and turn them on?

They reach into your room

Whoa-ho-ho-ho just feel their gentle touch (gentle touch)

When all hope is gone

(Oohhh) You know sad songs say so much

Sad songs, they say

Sad songs, they say

Sad songs, they say

(Ahhh) Sad songs, they say so much (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

(Ahhh) Why don't you tune in and turn them on?

They reach into your room

Whoa-ho-ho-ho just feel their gentle touch (gentle touch)

When all hope is gone

(Oohhh) You know sad songs say so much

When all hope is gone

You know sad songs say so much

(Ooh-la-la-la)

(Ooh-la-la-la)

When every little bit of hope is gone

Sad songs say so much

(Ooh-la-la-la)

(Ooh-la-la-la)

When every little bit of hope is gone

Sad songs say so much

(Ooh-la-la-la)

(Ooh-la-la-la)

When all hope is gone

Sad songs say so much
