I'm Sad That I Was Sad
Lee Feldman
Those were the days I remember
We were younger then
I wasn't quite myself
And you and I were friends
And then I changed direction
I served some time upstate
You were kind enough to write
I didn't reciprocate
And I guess life passed me by
But I watched you catch the wind
I'm putting on my latex gloves
And I'm remembering
And those were the times I remember
I was laughing then
Now my jaw is wired shut
And I am mumbling
And I'm glad that you were happy
I'm sad that I was sad
And as the steam shovel breaks through the concrete
I don't feel too bad
And this is the day I remember
The clock is ticking now
I don't know how this song will end
But it will end somehow
