Story Behind The Song
Boy falls in love with girl - girl drives him mental, but in the end, he finds that she really is the one for him.
Song Description
Tsai (sigh)Was inspired by an ad on the back of a City Paper in Philadelphia which read "Depressed, Suicidal? call for help". Denzien laughed out loud and said this would be great line in a song. A day later the song was finished. At a gig that week a Native American woman asked how Denzien knew Chippewa. She said that TSAI roughly translated meant "sight of day"

Lyrics
Title: Tsai (Sigh)
Words & Music by: Rick Denzien
So I'm here & you are there - we pretend and make distractions
Its terrible in a way - just can't find the really right words to say
when I think of you - I try hard not to panic
And when I think of you - well I just sigh....
you're a mystery you're a guide yeah
Tsai - you're a mystery
So I'm arguing a cause - never see coming attractions
Several times I had that dream - wondering if life is really what it seems
when I think of you - I go down like titanic
And when I think of you - well I just sigh....
you're a mystery you're a guide - yeah
Tsai - we got a history
And if I get out a here and don't turn back
Mind, body and spirit just slap me
I realize to day - I realize too late today
So at this stage I come to play - read the classifieds in action
Well are you crying all the time? So depressed? - You need psychotherapy
when I think of you - I know why I get manic
And when I think of you - well I just sigh....
you're a mystery you're a guide yeah
Tsai,
Oh Tsai
Oh Tsai
Tsai -
Oh Tsai
you're the girl, you're the girl, you're the girl
