Chris Cornell - Sad Sad City Lyrics

Chris Cornell Lyrics

"Sad Sad City"
(originally by Ghostland Observatory)

Been getting tired of my motor running
Feeling overheated 'cause my life keeps coming
My heart's been troubled by the speed of love
Searching these streets for a soul committee
Talking ideas on lust and pity
The fables I've found have no place in my home

Well, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth
Yeah, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth

Ain't no party in a sad sad city
Ain't no party in a sad sad city

Well, we roll the dice, pay the price
Dance with wolves in a pack of lies
The blood we crave will drive us all insane
Outer space is a lovely place
A long lost love in a flower vase
Laying on the floor shattered, battered and bruised

Well, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth
Yeah, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth

Ain't no party in a sad sad city
Ain't no party in a sad sad city

Well, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth
Yeah, I need you
To want me, hold me, tell me the truth

Ain't no party in a sad sad city
Ain't no party in a sad sad city
Ain't no party in a sad sad city
Ain't no party in a sad sad city
