Lyrics
I'm so sad, so sad and sorry. Sad I said I'd always be true, true to you. 'Cause I lied and you know I cheated, but she reminded me of you and I just couldn't help myself. Cause you've got a face like Mona Lisa. You've got a shape like Venus to me. So you see, although I knew I didn't love her, she reminded me of you, and I just couldn't help myself.
I've been true to you so long, but when we had that fight, she was here and you were gone and I was so lonesome that night, but now I'm sad, so sad and sorry. I was a fool and I hurt you so. Now I know you're all I need. So please don't leave me, 'cause she reminded me of you and I just couldn't help myself.
I'm so sad, I'm so sad.....You're all I need
