Sad Songs

I was only a child
But I cannot forget all the words of regret
And the cool, haunting smile
Have they lost that magical style?

Where are those sad, sad songs?
I don't hear those sad, sad songs anymore

The songs of Suzy Solidor
Oh, she sang night and day
To the fast-fading stars in old broken-down bars
That were full yesterday
Now they've cleared all the tables away

Where are those sad, sad songs?
I don't hear those sad, sad songs

She took her last bow
Sung out of style
Can't hear her now
Can't hear her now
Suzy's gone
Oh, Suzy's gone

Only vague memories remain
For the lonely old men
She sang only for them
Now she found the spotlight of fame
If they'd only remember her name

Where are those sad, sad songs?
I don't hear those sad, sad songs
Where are those sad, sad songs?
I don't hear those sad, sad songs anymore

Where are those sad songs?
I don't hear those sad, sad songs anymore
