Dwight Yoakam - The Sad Side Of Town lyrics

We've agreed not to mention any memories
Or share a single passing thought
That's just better for all concerned
Is what we've found
When you're living on the sad side of town

There's always hope
But we don't ever let it show
'Cause hopes start out real small
But how they just grow
And, just like dreams, are better left alone
Is what we've found
When you're living on the sad side of town

Please never bring up how she
Used to laugh at night
Would smell so sweet and giggle
When I squeezed her tight
If you can put a stop to that
There's a chance you might
Fit in here well enough to
Try this style of life

That's just better for all concerned
Is what we've found
When you're living on the sad side of town
When you're living on the sad side of town
