What A Song Lyrics

(Tom T. Hall)

You know they played that melody the first time that you danced with me
And way back then I didn't even know the words
Then they played that sing again when our love came to an end
It was the saddest happy song I ever heard.

What a song, what a song, you know I've heard it for so long
You know it seems to be the theme song from my whole life
A simple tune, simple lines but every time it comes to mind
I always think, oh, what a song, what a song.

Well, I don't know who made it up I only know the way it touched
The very heart and soul of me with every note
When everything it said and done when all the other songs are sung
I hope they play the greatest song they ever wrote.

What a song, what a song, you know I've heard it for so long
You know it seems to be the theme song from my whole life
A simple tune, simple lines but every time it comes to mind
I always think, oh, what a song, what a song...
