Sad Country
Welcome to sad country
Where we throw our lives to the wind and sea
Where the dust and snow just wear us down
Where the lights go dim from town to town
But you can run through the rain
Just like I know you love to do
And you can smile through the pain
Just like your mother before you
Welcome to nostalgia street
Where all the cool kids used to meet
With your rolled up chinos and polka dot hat
I'm still clinging onto that
But you can run through the rain
Just like I know you love to do
And you can smile through the pain
Just like your mother before you
And you don't belong
Anywhere else but right here
Sat here singing your favourite songs
It's what you wanted all along
On your balcony in the snow
Wind in your hair and eyes aglow
Watching the cars drive from afar
With you on banjo and me on guitar
Singing your heart out for the world to hear
If only you were mine my dear
You can sing high and I'll sing low
Until you never want to go
With my head dangling out the rear window
And you looking at the fields below
You've always loved to sightsee
So welcome to my sad country
Where we throw our lives to the wind and sea
Where the dust and snow just wear us down
Where the lights go dim from town to town
But you can run through the rain
Just like I know you love to do
And you can smile through the pain
Just like your mother before you
Welcome to nostalgia street
Where all the cool kids used to meet
With your rolled up chinos and polka dot hat
I'm still clinging onto that
But you can run through the rain
Just like I know you love to do
And you can smile through the pain
Just like your mother before you
And you don't belong
Anywhere else but right here
Sat here singing your favourite songs
It's what you wanted all along
On your balcony in the snow
Wind in your hair and eyes aglow
Watching the cars drive from afar
With you on banjo and me on guitar
Singing your heart out for the world to hear
If only you were mine my dear
You can sing high and I'll sing low
Until you never want to go
With my head dangling out the rear window
And you looking at the fields below
You've always loved to sightsee
So welcome to my sad country
