"And if I didn't love you, how could I miss you?" Big Bird (Caroll Spinney) is sad as he's missing his buddy, Snuffy. Bob (Bob McGrath) sings a song I've called "Happy-Sad Sad-Happy" about the emotions we feel for our loved ones, especially when they're not around. Gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling to hear Bob tell Big Bird he loves him, but I'm an old softie. Originally aired in 1982 (Ep 1649, Season 13), this clip comes courtesy of a Special Friend of the Archive. Posted today after I had a good cry over this morning's Supreme Court decision in the US. Never thought I'd see this day in my lifetime and it's a punch to the gut. No politics here, just a sweet song to convey complicated emotions.
LYRICS:
When I'm away, I miss you
And when I come back, I'm glad
And if I didn't love you
I couldn't miss you
And feel sad-happy, happy-sad
When I'm at home, I love you
When I'm at work, I love you too
And if I didn't love you
How could I miss you?
And feel sad-happy, happy-sad
I've gotta work, you've gotta play
We can't be together all of the day
But something keeps going while we're away
Something sad-happy, happy-sad
Yes, when I'm away, I miss you
And when I come back, I'm glad
And just because I love you
I don't mind feeling
Feeling sad-happy, happy-sad
Sad I'm not with you and then
I'm happy to see you again
Sad-happy, happy-sad
