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

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 we're closed

And I hear myself tell her
Some old words I know they won't 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 that's been shattered
Those words don't mean that 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
And she's been through all the pain
That one can endure

And her new man thinks she loves him
But he can't be sure
And his heart pines for Wendy

She says that's how it goes
How am I supposed to know
He can't read the sign saying

Sorry we're closed
Yeah we're 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 there's a sign on the door
There's a sign on the door [3x]

One more sign...
