As Sad As I Can Be | Original Song Written by my Dad in 1978

This song holds a very special place in my heart. “As Sad As I Can Be” was written by my dad back in 1978. For decades, the words sat on paper and in memory, carrying the weight of his story and vision.

Through the power of AI music technology, I’ve been able to bring his lyrics to life — recording a version that carries the essence of what he envisioned while giving it a modern sound for today. It’s both a tribute and a revival, blending the past with the present.

[Verse 1]
I'm as sad as I can be
I'm in the penitentiary
No one here to care for me
Don't know when or if they'll set me free

[Chorus 1]
I can never be the same
I have suffered all the shame
But in my heart you're still the flame
It even hurts to hear your name
Now I'm as sad as I can be

[Verse 2]
I'm so sad that I could die
I live but Lord knows I don't try
What's the use to struggle by
Guess I'll never know the reason why

[Chorus 2]
I recall our used to be
And all the love you had for me
Never thought I'd live to see
Our love turn into misery
Now I'm as sad as I can be

[Verse 1]
I'm as sad as I can be
I'm in the penitentiary
No one here to care for me
Don't know when or if they'll set me free

[Add]
Oh, I'm as sad as I can be

I hope you enjoy this heartfelt performance and feel the emotion that my dad poured into these words so many years ago.
