There's a crystal in the window, throwing rainbows around,
There's a girl by the mirror, and her feet won't touch the ground,
'Cause she never saw the sky so bright,
Isn't that like a cloud, to come by night'
Never mind the sky; there's a tear in her eye.

A sad face is good for the heart,
Go on cry, it can be a cruel world,
A sad face is good for the heart of a girl,
A sad face.

There's a woman in my kitchen with a rainbow on her cheek,
Well, isn't that a promise'
Still, I never felt so weak,
There's a tiny spirit in a world above, cradled so sweetly in our Father's love,
So you don't have to cry,
No, there's something in my eye.

A sad face is good for the heart,
Maybe just now I don't understand,
A sad face is good for the heart of a man,
A sad face.

A sad face is good for the heart,
It's alright, you don't have to smile,
A sad face is good for the heart of a child,
For the heart of a child,
For the heart of a child,
For the heart of a child,
Sad face,
Sad face,
A sad face.
