Sarah came to me
with a letter in her hand
She'd gone round snooping
in the car of her man
She said, I shouldn't but
I'm glad that I did
She smiled and opened it,
and here's what it read
I apologize, I love you right
I come home to you every night
Ask me anything you like,
and I will tell you the truth
As I heard those words, not deny
It was hard to look her in the eye
But I sat her down and I replied
He didn't mean that for you
Ain't luck of what the hell
came cross her sweet face
I didn't know how to tell her
so I prayed for some grace
It's not easy telling
someone in love
what they don't wanna hear
But as a friend, I said,
open your eyes and ears
Have you ever been inside his home?
To know he doesn't live alone
Why he steps outside to use the phone
You know who he's talking to
Honey, I don't wanna make you cry
But you've been cut by quite the knife
The man you speak of has a wife
He didn't mean that for you
Oh, so sad, so sad, so sad, so sad
Whoa -oh -oh -oh, oh
So sad, so sad, so sad, so sad
Oh, so sad, so sad, so sad, so sad
Whoa -oh -oh -oh, oh
So sad, so sad
Sarah fell down in her chair
and said to me
I admit I wondered bout his ways
But that's why when I
heard those words
I did believe
That he had made a change
But I'm tired of being played
On the pictures from the things
we've done
And the card that said I was the one
The town we stole on vacation
I'll tell you what I'm gonna do
Gonna find his house, knock on the door
And when she asks what I'm here for
I'll set that box on her front porch
I think he meant this for you
Oh -oh
So sad, so sad, so sad, so sad
Oh -oh -oh -oh -oh
So sad, so sad, so sad, so sad
Oh
So sad, so sad, so sad, so sad
Oh, oh, oh, oh
So sad, so sad
So sad, so sad
