There'll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry) Lyrics

Sometimes I wonder by the look in your eyes
When I'm standing beside you there's a fever burning deep inside.
Is there another in your memory?
Do you think of that someone when you hear that special melody?
I always stop and think of you
Especially when the words of love song touch the very heart of me.
There'll be sad songs to make you cry, love songs often do,
They can touch the heart of someone new saying I love you, I love you.
I often wonder how it could be you loving me, two hearts in perfect harmony.
I'll count the hours until that day, the rhapsody plays a melody for you and me.
Until the moment that you give your love to me,
You're the one I care for, the one I will wait for.
There'll be sad songs to make you cry, love songs often do,
They can touch the heart of someone new saying I love you, ooh ooh ooh, oh.
You're my desire, you take me higher.
My love is like a river running so deep.
Until the moment that you give your love to me,
You're the one I care for, the one that I will wait for,
There'll be sad songs to make you cry, love songs often do,
They can touch the heart of someone new saying I love you. Ah. Ah.
There'll be sad songs to make you cry, love songs often do,
They can touch the heart of someone new saying I love you, I love you.
Do do do do do do do do do do do do do. Ooh.
Saying I love you. (Spoken) I love you.

Cover art for There'll Be Sad Songs (To Make You Cry) lyrics by Billy Ocean

The songwriter has fallen for a woman who may not yet be over her ex. The songwriter is trying to convey that he is willing to wait for her to be ready ("Until the moment that you give your love to me"). Until then, he has fantasies in his mind of how good their relationship could be.

Another interpretation is that the songwriter has unrequited love for this woman who's a co-worker or a classmate. He doesn't know what she's thinking or feeling. In fact, there is no indication in any of the song lines that she interacts with or even knows the songwriter. He will be crying to "sad songs" if he doesn't even try!
