Lyrics:

The church choir they only sing
The saddest songs I know
On Sundays the church choir sings
'Til all the daylight goes

I sang in the church choir
But I only sang for you
The saddest songs I ever knew
I sang them just for you

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything

This town is so quiet
You are wasted on me
I wish you could leave this town
For the cruel world and the city

But I liked it in that sad old town
With everyone I loved
My friends and my family sang
The saddest songs around

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything

The church choir they only sing
The saddest songs I know
On Sundays the church choir sings
'Til all the daylight goes

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything

The saddest songs
I know where they come from
Those sad old songs we sing
Always mean everything
