Song Description
This could be a song about a trucker in a long distance relationship or about a break-up that neither party really wanted to happen. He is driving and listening to the radio and is happy because all the deejay is playing is happy songs. He is so unconvinced that they should break-up that the first sad song he hears will tempt him to turn around and go back to her.

Lyrics
Just a Sad Song Away
(Brian Mosher)
I?ve been on this road for what seems like forever
And I?m trying so hard not to think about you
I?ve had the radio on since I left you in Denver
I?ve been lucky so far, ?cause the deejay?s been in a good mood
But all it takes is just one and I?m turning around
I?m not strong enough for the lonesome sound
Of a sad song flying through the midnight air
And your memory following me everywhere
I still don?t think this is right
So I?m praying to God that my radio sings the blues
?Cause I?m just a sad song away from you
(solo)
Then a sweet voice comes on the air she?s been crying for hours
She wants to make a request ?cause she believes in the power
(chorus)
I?m coming home-just a sad song away from you
