Sadly Sorta Like A Soap Opera / Steve Forbert

일일 연속극처럼 조금 슬프게

 

The walls closing around you,  

and he won’t be home tonight.

He's out somewhere and gambling

and perhaps he's in a fight,

 

And yes you know about the woman, 

and you know its three or four,

Perhaps he's out there laughing

now and dancing’  on the floor.

 

And yet you try to make the best of it,

which isn’t much I know. 

You thought you've had your fill of it,

but you see that it wasn’t so. oh

No....

  

Now your babies are sleeping soundly,

and you hang your head and think.

He damn near broke your nose last night,

and harder does he drink,

And as the wind blows at the window,

and the clouds go by the moon,

The walls closing around you and your

sadness is still around.

 

And yet you try to make the best of it,  

which isn’t much I know. 

You thought you've had your fill of it,

but you see that it wasn’t so. oh

No....

  

You know you make your own decisions

and you live the life you choose,

I watch it from the sidelines and

it sure gives me the blues,

 

You know you're sure to find me waiting,  

should you ever come around, 

I am the one that loves you while

he drives you further down.

 

And yet you try to make the best of it,  

which isn’t much I know. 

You thought you've had your fill of it,

but you see that it wasn’t so. oh

No...no baby.
