Wendys sittin next to me
Shes 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 aint her first heartache
But it feels like, it feels like the worst
And she says
Can someone tell me how this can happen
And I guess that God only knows
My heart used to be
The sweet shop of love
But now the sign on the door
It says sorry were closed
And I hear myself tell her
Some old words I know they wont help
And then I feel guilty
Cause I closed some sweet shops myself
And we all talk about timing
And lifestyles and such
But to a heart thats been shattered
Those words dont mean that much
And all of our pining
It just goes to show
Dont you enter a shop
With the sign on the door
Saying sorry were closed
And shes been through all the pain
That one can endure
And her new man thinks she loves him
But he cant be sure
And his heart pines for Wendy
She says thats how it goes
How am I supposed to know
He cant read the sign saying
Sorry were closed
Yeah were closed
And she says
Can someone tell me how this can happen
And I guess that God only knows
My heart used to be
The sweet shop of love
But theres a sign on the door
Theres a sign on the door
One more sign...
