The Saddest Song I Ever Wrote
by: Larry W. Jones

Howdy Jimmy Butler. I/we all look forward to your experiences and hope to learn a lot from you. I like the idea of "writing the best song ever". Here is one I personally like, but it still needs music, recording and marketing. Yours maybe?

The Saddest Song I Ever Wrote (Larry W. Jones 02/22/2008) (song#5305)

Now, the warmest warmth I've ever known
Was the sweetest lips I kissed that day
And the storm that came with no warning
Was when your ship sailed so far away
Now, the greatest loss with greatest cost
Was watching the love between us fade
And the saddest song I ever wrote
Is the one the jukebox never played

Now, the coldest cold, so I've been told
Is the earth down at the southern pole
And the northern lights aren't very bright
When the warming sun ain't on patrol
Now, the lowest low that's so remote
Is six feet down in a cold dark grave
And the saddest song I ever wrote
Is the one the jukebox never played

They say time stands still for no one
But a memory can remain
Your mem'ry fills my loneliness
And sands of time can't kill the pain

- instrumental -

Now, the greatest loss with greatest cost
Was watching the love between us fade
And the saddest song I ever wrote
Is the one the jukebox never played

Now, the rain falls mainly on the plain
Over in Spain where the sun does shine
But the rain that's falling in my heart
Is now drowning this whole world of mine
Now, the day you left and rocked the boat
Dreams disappeared on the winds of trade
And the saddest song I ever wrote
Is the one the jukebox never played
