There's sorrow in the winter wind
But there's wisdom to be found in sorrow
The root of woe, as we all know
Is not having hope in tomorrow
Sad, sad love, oh happy heaven
Two worlds collide tonight
I'm wanting you, but you're so blue
You've forgotten how to cry
There's not a tear in your blue eyes
Oh why, my dear, when you look so fine?
I mean your hair, your eyes, your form
Still you say, despite my praise
You despair of the day you were born
Sad, sad love, oh happy heaven
Two worlds collide tonight
I'm wanting you, but you're so blue
You've forgotten how to cry
There's not a tear in your blue eyes
Oh friends, who hear, this sad refrain
Let me warn you one last time
Don't fall in love with a lonely girl
Or try to ease her weary mind
For you may touch her perfectly
With warm hands that would melt another
But she's not one, to give in to fun
She's a d**hly pale cold-hearted lover
Sad, sad love, oh happy heaven
Two worlds collide tonight
I'm wanting you, but you're so blue
You keep saying you want to die
Good night, my love, good night
Yes, I'm wanting you, but you're so blue
You've already turned off the light
