My wounded rhymes make silent cries tonight My wounded rhymes make silent cries tonight And I'll keep it like a burning Longing from a distance I ranted, I pleaded, I beg him not to go For sorrow, the only lover I've ever known Sadness is a blessing Sadness is a pearl Sadness is my boyfriend Oh, sadness, I'm your girl These scars of mine make wounded rhymes tonight I dream of times when you were mine so I Can keep it like a haunting Heart beating close to mine Sadness is a blessing Sadness is a pearl Sadness is my boyfriend Oh, sadness, I'm your girl I ranted, I pleaded, I beg him not to go For sorrow, the only lover I've ever known Every night I rant, I plead, I beg him not to go Will sorrow be the only lover I can call my own? Sadness is a blessing Sadness is a pearl Sadness is my boyfriend Oh, sadness, I'm your girl Sadness is a blessing Sadness is a pearl Sadness is my boyfriend Oh, sadness, I'm your girl Sadness is my boyfriend Oh, sadness, I'm your girl Oh, sadness, I'm your girl Oh, sadness, I'm your girl
