Story Behind the Song
This is the original Version in English
Lyrics
Ode to sadness
A good friend came over and he said to me
One day when i woke up i forgot my way
Cant remember who i am, or suposed to be
he looked real sharp in his suit of sadness
but happyness is what he came to see
What can i say but sometimes even you will cry
nomatter who you are, nomatter how hard you try
Now you know why i was so long alone
Now you know why i didnt find my way back home
Wont you see my fear, i hide it in a barn
never cryed a tear, as i knew it was gone
Now i know most certainly what you can do when you feel free
Forget your bitter past, forgive your self
Dont get mad and loose your head
then i'm with you my friend
Smell an earlie morning, strech to keep it in
Jump in to the ocean, till your mind is fresh and clean
Let this liquid melodie wash the rythm to the shore
Dont regret the mistake you made
then you learned from it
Now you know why i was so long alone
Now you know why i didnt find my way back home
Wont you see my fear, i hide it in a barn
never cryed a tear, as i knew it was gone
Now i know most certainly what you can do when you feel free
