lyrics

Jenny's only fourteen
she can't help feeling sad
boyfriend's moved so far away and she
can't help feeling sad
she can hear the people say
barely lived a single day of your life
look into her eyes, you can see that she has
she can't help feeling sad, oh ho yeah

I was only twenty-one, and I can't help feeling sad
Lisa was my only one and I, can't help feeling sad
left me all alone that day
I could hear the people say
you shouldn't feel so bad
but they don't know what I had
I can't help feeling sad, oh ho yeah

my heart stayed broken for some time
and love has turned to a battleground
forgive me, did you forgive me?
forgive me, did you forgive me?
did you forgive me?

and now I'm stone sad
stone down
I'm left out on the playground
I'm stone tired
stone cold
so afraid of getting old

little house at the end of my block
I can't help feeling sad
whispers that their lawns not cut
and I can't help feeling sad
you know I see them everyday
playing with their family
and no one has the right to say
you know that it makes me mad
I can't help feeling sad
aw yeah yeah yeah
