lyrics

BEAUTIFUL SADNESS
Writer: Melanie Safka


Nobody's home tonight and I've left my key
Somehow this place we live never belonged to me
I should've made the big move
Cause our love is past
You tell me love is like that
Ah don't make me laugh

Just leave me my beautiful sadness
And don't make me laugh
Just leave me my beautiful sadness
And don't make me laugh
Don't make me laugh

Cause nothing less than what is true
Is all I need to know
Spare me lines about growing pains
And your freedom to come and to go

Just leave me my beautiful sadness
And don't make me laugh
Just leave me my beautiful sadness
And don't make me laugh
Don't make me laugh

Some folks make the most of their little cry
I shall love every minute when we say goodbye
Cause I can't, I can't, I can't be in between
Your little more, little more than past

Just leave me my beautiful sadness
Just leave me my beautiful sadness
Just leave me my beautiful sadness
Just leave me my beautiful sadness
And Oooh, don't make me laugh

Please leave me, leave me, in my beautiful sadness
And don't baby, don't make me laugh
Just leave me my beautiful sadness
And don't Oooh, don't make me laugh

Melanie Nashville, Tennessee

Pieces of a career, scattered by the winds of experience and assembled again by the force of love into the most personal and brilliant moments of her musical journey. Melanie is poised to enlighten new generations about what it means to sing with both passion and eloquence, to write at once with intelligence and emotion, and to inspire through song. Nobody does this better.
