Brian Musgrove - All the Sad Songs Lyrics

There's a shadow on the rainbow
Where the sun forgot to play
There's a raindrop on your window
And it's rolling down your way
And he's headin' straight for you
Like he's got something to prove

There's a footstep on your staircase
You can hear her walk away
There's a cab outside of your place
And nothing left to say
You hear the hinge on the screen door cry
A tear stands up in your eye

Time to break out all the sad songs
That you've forgotten how to play
Time to write yourself a new one
You've got something new to say
To say

There's a shadow on the rainbow
Where the rain got washed away
It ran down into the hollow
Where your lover used to play
And she'd laugh and say your name
Pull your feet into the flame

Time to break out all the sad songs
That you've forgotten how to play
Time to write us all a new one
Tell us how it got this way
This way

And the rainbow fades into the past
You're just a shadow on the glass
And this room will face you all alone
With all this emptiness that's yours to own
Yours to own

There's a shadow on the rainbow
And it's been up there all day
And the raindrop on your window
You know he's here to stay
Unless some day a sunny sky
Wipes the darkness from your eye

Time to break out all the sad songs
That you remember how to play
Pull out all of those good good-by songs
With all the words you forgot to say
That you did not say

Break out all the sad songs
Time to break out all the sad songs
Time to break out all the sad songs
