Sad Lisa Lyrics

Lyric discussion by SadChris 

Cover art for Sad Lisa lyrics by Cat Stevens

Sad Chris: I was just 19 when my girlfriend, who would have been my friend/wife for life, got pancreatic cancer and died, taking a part of my heart with her!

Although I have since met and married the most fantastic woman with a heart and soul of pure gold, the missing part of my heart sometimes tugs, in the form of Sad Lisa. Then I can't help feeling sorry for that 19 year old boy - even though it is myself - cruelly torn during the period in my life.

Why is it that perhaps every writer will, with certainty, write at least one heartbreaking song?

Memory

SadChris: To see Cat in that concert at Williamsburg, Virginia, is to see someone who is pure music, sharing with the world, that which is food for our souls, perhaps one of God's greatest gifts to us.

You can see it in way he moves, plays and sings. Thank you Cat!
