the saddest thing.......Melanie Safka

And the saddest thing under the sun above
Is to say goodbye to the ones you love
All the things that I have known
Became my life, my very own

But, before you know you say goodbye
All the time goodbye, it's time to cry
But I will not weep nor make a scene
I'm gonna say, thank you, thank you life for having been

And the loudest cry under the sun above
Is the silent goodbye from one you love

But I will not weep nor make a scene
I'm gonna say, thank you life for having been

and the saddest thing under the sun above
Is to say goodbye to the ones you love
