What A Song

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 song 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



[ fiddle ]



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're sung



I hope they play the greatest song they ever wrote



What a song what a song...
