Lyrics Dwight Yoakam

Dwight Yoakam

Don't Be Sad

Don't be sad 'cause you got what you wanted

You should be glad to know that I'm finally gone

Don't feel bad or be disappointed

'Cause you got what you wanted all along

Wasn't it you who said

A blinded fool could see the clear plain truth

About how deeply cruel it is

To live a lie here with each other

And mourn a life that won't recover

As I recall those were the very words I heard you use

So don't be sad 'cause you got what you wanted

You should be glad to know that I'm finally gone

Don't feel bad or be disappointed

'Cause you got what you wanted all along

Wasn't it me who asked

So stupidly if there were things

That I could maybe do

Or try to somehow hold

What feel apart together

But you just coldly told me never

To even entertain the thought

That our love would survive

So don't be sad 'cause you got what you wanted

You should be glad to know that I'm finally gone

Don't feel bad or be disappointed

'Cause you got what you wanted all along
