Sadly Beautiful Lyrics

From the very first day that you were born
To the very last time you waved and honked your horn
Had no chance at all to watch you grow
Up so sadly, beautiful
Up so sadly, beautiful

Baby needs a brand new pair of eyes
Cause the ones you got now see only goodbyes
Had no chance at all to let you know
Oh so sadly, beautiful
Sadly, beautiful

Well you got your father's hair
And you got your father's nose
But you got my soul
Sadly, beautiful

From the very last time you waved and honked your horn
To a face that turned away pale and worn
Had no chance at all to let you know
You left me sadly, beautiful
Left me sadly, beautiful
Sadly, beautiful
So sadly
So sadly

Sadly Beautiful

John Cale of the Velvet Underground played the viola solo in the middle of this song. Paul Westerberg said he was extremely intimidated by Cale while he was in the studio, always wondering "If he was going to drop-kick me."
