[Verse 1]
I know you, you're trying to do
All you can for me
I appreciate your help
But it's best just to leave me be

[Pre-Chorus]
There's many things that I have done
And I'm sorry for them now
So, darling please don't you comfort me
I'll sort it out somehow

[Chorus]
So, sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Please, don't you make me blue
Sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Girl, I can do without you
Don't go breaking my heart
It would tear me apart
'Cause then, I'd be finished for good
So, sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Please, don't you make me blue

[Verse 2]
I don't want you to think I'm mean
Refusing all your help
The time has come but, my need is none
And I wanna be alone with myself

[Pre-Chorus]
There's many things that I have done
And I'm sorry for them now
So, darling please don't you comfort me
I'll sort it out somehow

[Chorus]
So, sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Please, don't you make me blue
Sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Girl, I can do without you
Don't go breaking my heart
It would tear me apart
'Cause then, I'd be finished for good
So, sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Please, don't you make me blue

[Chorus]
So, sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Please, don't you make me blue
Sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Girl, I can do without you
Sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
Girl, don't you make me blue
Sing me no sad songs
Tell me no lies
