[00:00.00]The Ballad of the Sad Young Men (from "The Nervous Set") (from "The Nervous Set") - Ed Ames
[00:09.82]Sing a song of sad young men
[00:16.84]Glasses full of rye
[00:23.90]All the news is bad again
[00:29.29]Kiss your dreams goodbye
[00:37.65]All the sad young men
[00:44.02]Sitting in the bars
[00:49.05]Knowing neon lights
[00:53.57]And missing all the stars
[00:59.45]All the sad young men
[01:03.32]Drifting through the town
[01:10.85]Drinking up the night
[01:16.17]Trying not to drown
[01:24.48]All the sad young men
[01:30.02]Singing in the cold
[01:35.95]Trying to forget
[01:40.21]That they're growing old
[01:46.81]All the sad young men
[01:49.66]Choking on their youth
[01:57.88]Trying to be brave
[02:02.85]Running from the truth
[02:13.02]Autumn turns the leaves to gold
[02:19.29]Slowly dies the heart
[02:26.49]Sad young men are growing old
[02:32.26]That's the cruelest part
[02:39.01]All the sad young men
[02:43.10]Seek a certain smile
[02:47.52]Someone they can hold
[02:51.86]For a little while
[02:57.22]Tired little girl
[03:01.80]Does the best she can
[03:08.20]Trying to be gay
[03:13.70]For a sad young man
[03:22.08]While the grimy moon
[03:26.79]Watches from above
[03:31.78]All the sad young men
[03:35.77]Play at making love
[03:43.36]Misbegotten moon
[03:46.29]Shine for sad young men
[03:54.32]Let your gentle light
[04:01.00]Guide them home tonight
[04:09.96]All the sad young men
