Lyrics Melanie Safka - The Saddest Thing

And the saddest song under the sun above
is to say goodbye to the ones you loved

All the things that I have known
became my life, my very own

But before you know you say goodbye
ooh good time goodbye, it's time to cry

But I will not weep nor make a scene
just say thank you life for having been

And the hardest thing under the sun above
it's to say goodbye to the ones you love

No, I will not weep nor make a scene
I'm gonna say oh thank you life for having been

And the loudest cry under the sun above
is the silent goodbye from the ones you love

ah, ah, ah
