Sad Eyes Songtext
von BoDeans

Late summer night, about 3 a.m
We were driving through the countryside
Singing along with the radio
Every guilty pleasure song in sight

We sang, "Shannon has gone and drifted off
Drifted off to sea"
We sang, "Mandy, you came and you gave without
Taking anything from me"

We sang, "Sad eyes
Turn the other way"
We sang, "Sad, sad eyes
You knew there′d come a day"

What is it about when you hear an old song?
It can take you straight back away
Back to a place, at a certain time
Back to a special day


We were singing "Rainy Days and Mondays"
"Alone Again Naturally"
We were singing "She Ran Cold in a Wildfire"
And singing "Indiana Wants Me"

We sang, "Sad eyes
Turn the other way"
We sang, "Sad, sad eyes
You knew there'd come a day"

We sang "Baby, Don′t Be a Hero"
We were singing "Seasons in the Sun"
We sang "O Ne Paloma Blanca"
And "Girls Just Want to Have Fun"

We sang, "Sad eyes
Turn the other way"
We sang, "Sad, sad eyes
You knew there'd come a day"

We sang, "Sad eyes
Turn the other way"
We sang, "Sad, sad eyes
You knew there'd come a day"


Sad eyes
Turn the other way
Sad, sad eyes
You knew there′d come a day

Sad eyes
Turn the other way
Sad, sad eyes
You knew there′d come a day

Sad eyes
Turn the other way
We sang, "Sad, sad eyes
You knew there'd come a day"
