The saddest sounds are the words goodbye The softest sounds are the tears I cry You walked away, and then I found A heart that breaks is the loneliest sound. The cruelest sound that I have known Is the silence when I'm left alone You broke my heart and turned me down And now I've heard the loneliest sound. The words that you found someone new Keep pounding and pounding in my brain And your footsteps as you walk, you walk away Keep adding, adding to my pain. The happiest sound I'll never hear Are just three words, oh I love you my dear So I guess I'll hang around Hearing just the loneliest sound. Drives me crazy Can't stand it anymore Aw it's getting to me...
