Story Behind the Song
Written in my head, and recorded on a Korg D8, digtal 8 track. Recording process a little long due to mixing. This final version is about the 17th mix.
Lyrics
Sad Sad Sally I think I hear you crying
Sad Sad Sally are you, all alone?
But don't you fret tonight, 'cause my thoughts they are of you
Can't you feel my arms around you, in times of need
Sad Sad Sally I think your mind's against you
Sad Sad Sally don't you, see the light?
And don't you know it's love, and that it starts within the soul?
It's OK if you think you need me, to show the way........to show the way
And if the nights are long
And feel as though they'll never end
Know I'll say a prayer for your soul
And if no one's around
To listen to your aching heart
Know I'll say a prayer for your soul
Know I'll say a prayer for your soul
Know I'll say a prayer........for Sad Sad Sally's....soul.
Sad Sad Sally I heard you're staying in now
Sad Sad Sally why you, wanna hide?
I know you're so afraid, of all the pain and all the hurt
Don't you know it's oh so futile, to run away
Sad Sad Sally I think you need to trust me
Sad Sad Sally won't you, face your fears?
And know the time is now, you got to open up your heart
And forgive yourself like I do, and love yourself........love yourself
And if the nights are long
And feel as though they'll never end
Know I'll say a prayer for your soul
And if no one's around
To listen to your aching heart
Know I'll say a prayer for your soul
Know I'll say a prayer for your soul
Know I'll say a prayer........for Sad Sad Sally's....soul.
So you cried your days away, you cried till your eyes were dry
Now you wonder where it it went, this thing that they're call "life"
Oh Sad......Sally!
