Oh sorrow and sadness everybody sings about a happiness
Oh sorrow and sadness everybody's dying for love

Running Bear and Little Dove lost their lives they gave 'em for love
Then came an angel in her teen she killed herself for a high school ring

Oh sorrow and sadness...

Jimmy died in a hot rod race but you can bet he'll be replaced
His last words were I love you now Laura is looking for someone new

Oh sorrow and sadness...

I'm just looking for happiness you know I love you but I'll confess
But baby I'd never die for you cause I'd be gone and what good I would do

Oh sorrow and sadness...
Everybody's dying for love everybody's dying for love
