when you're sad you can sometimes rise. a song, a sad song, can do that

lyrics

SAD SONGS MAKE ME HAPPY

sad songs make me happy
sad songs make me smile
sad songs tell the truth 'bout love
when yr poor heart's standin' trial

if i had a dollar
for every time im down
baby, i'd be a rich man
w/ my silly ol' head up in the clouds

sad songs make me happy
sad songs make me smile
sad songs tear the heart out
of every face in the lonesome crowd

if i was in trouble
w/ a loss i could not bear
an old song whispers, yr ok mister,
please,
do not despair

i know we all get cut t pieces
makes us feel insane
lost in the jungle blind and wasted
look for answers t heal the pain
look for answers t ease the pain

sad songs make me happy
sad songs make me smile
sad songs tell the truth 'bout love
when yr poor heart's standin' trial
