anything but sad

it is so quite new a thing
this feeling that I have
I never thought I'd be
anything but sad

then you came along
in your canvas shoes
drinking coffee from a paper cup
and singing lonesome blues

doot doot doo doo doo etc

I can't recall the time or place
it was midnight maybe two
I only saw your face
I was aware of only you

you were shining like a beacon
in the dark and velvet night
I never thought I'd live to see
such a beautiful light

doot doot doo doo doo etc

you kissed me in a doorway
and instantly I fell
even though I skinned my knees
you liked me just as well

it is quite so new a thing
this feeling that we have
we never thought we'd be
anything but sad
anything but sad

doot doot doo doo doo etc
