Sign On The Door
Wendy's sittin' next to me â"š¬ She's trying hard to drink it away â"š¬ And I feel the rumble of the subway Beneath the stage â"š¬ And her eyes are screaming â"š¬ And her lips are pursed â"š¬ And this ain't her first heartache â"š¬ But it feels like, it feels like the worst â"š¬ And she says â"š¬ Can someone tell me how this can happen â"š¬ And I guess that God only knows â"š¬ My heart used to be â"š¬ The sweet shop of love â"š¬ But now the sign on the door â"š¬ It says sorry we're closed â"š¬ And I hear myself tell her â"š¬ Some old words I know they won't help â"š¬ And then I feel guilty â"š¬ 'Cause I closed some sweet shops myself â"š¬ And we all talk about timing â"š¬ And lifestyles and such â"š¬ But to a heart that's been shattered â"š¬ Those words don't mean that much â"š¬ And all of our pining â"š¬ It just goes to show â"š¬ Don't you enter a shop â"š¬ With the sign on the door â"š¬ Saying sorry we're closed â"š¬ And she's been through all the pain â"š¬ That one can endure â"š¬ And her new man thinks she loves him â"š¬ But he can't be sure â"š¬ And his heart pines
for Wendy â"š¬ She says that's how it goes â"š¬ How am I supposed to know â"š¬ He can't read the sign saying â"š¬ Sorry we're closed â"š¬ Yeah we're closed â"š¬ And she says â"š¬ Can someone tell me how this can happen â"š¬ And I guess that God only knows â"š¬ My heart used to be â"š¬ The sweet shop of love â"š¬ But there's a sign on the door â"š¬ There's a sign on the door â"š¬ There's a sign on the door â"š¬ There's a sign on the door â"š¬ One more signâ"š¬
