Wendy's sittin' next to me, She's trying hard to drink it away
And I feel the rumble of the subway beneath the stage
And her eyes are screaming, And her lips are pursed
And this ain't her first heartache, But it feels like,
it feels like the worst, And she says
Bmsus Bmsus
Can someone tell me how this can happen, I guess that God only knows
Bmsus
My heart used to be, The sweet shop of love
Bmsus
But now the sign on the door, It says sorry we're closed
1/2 1/2
- - - -
And I hear myself tell her, Some old words I know they won't help
And then I feel guilty, 'Cause I've closed some sweet shops myself
And we all talk about timing, And lifestyles and such
But to a heart that's been shattered, Those words don't mean much
And all of our pining, It just goes to show, Don't you enter a shop,
With the sign on the door Saying sorry we're closed
1/2 1/2

Bmsus
And she's been through all the pain, That one can endure
Bmsus
And her new man thinks she loves him, But he can't be sure
Bmsus
And his heart pines for Wendy, She says that's how it goes
Bmsus
How am I supposed to know, He can't read the sign saying
-
Sorry we're closed, Yeah we're closed, And she says
Bmsus Bmsus
Can someone tell me how this can happen, I guess that God only knows
Bmsus
My heart used to be, The sweet shop of love
Bmsus
But now there's a sign on the door, There's a sign on the door
Bmsus
There's a sign on the door, another sign on the door
