What's the saddest sound
That a man can make?
Is it when a man cries?
He's had more than he can take
Is it when a man screams
That his life's gone to hell?
Or is it when a man pleads
For his life from his cell?
Tell me what's the saddest sound
That a man can make?
Tell me what's the saddest sound
That a man can make?
Is nothing
Is nothing
That's the sound I make...
What's the saddest sight
That a man can see?
Is it an empty glass
Or a boat lost at sea?
Is it the sight of his lover
As she leaves his side?
Is it the sight of his father
Who has just gone and died?
Tell me what's the saddest sight
That a man can see?
Tell me what's the saddest sight
That a man can see?
The saddest sight
Is nothing
The saddest sight
Is nothing
That's all I see...
What's the saddest feeling
That a man can feel?
Is it the sting of regret
Or when he doesn't know what's real or imagined?
Or is it when
He's abandoned all hope?
Is it the crush round his neck
As he tightens that rope?
Tell me what's the saddest feeling
That a man can feel?
Tell me what's the saddest feeling
That a man can feel?
Tell me what's the saddest feeling
That a man can feel?
Tell me what's the saddest feeling
That a man can feel?
The saddest feeling
Is nothing
The saddest feeling
Is nothing
The saddest feeling
Is nothing
The saddest feeling...
