[Verse 1]
I watched the taxi cab take you away
I was the one left alone in the rain
I've drained a few bottles
Stared a hole through my phone
I've come to grips with the fact that you're gone
And here you are standing in tears at my door
I don't know what to tell you
I've heard this one before

[Chorus]
You're a sad song
A sad song
You're a sad song
Waiting to happen

[Verse 2]
I stumbled around like a fool in the dark
I found most of the pieces of my broken heart
When I put them all back together again
Where in the hell were you then
I could give in and let you get to me
But I can't live with leaving
Stuck on repeat

[Chorus]
You're a sad song
A sad song
You're a sad song
Waiting to happen

[Bridge]
Don't do that thing that you do with your lips
Don't reach for my hand baby I just can't do this
If I let you in
Well I'll just wake up stuck
In the middle of

[Chorus]
A sad song
A sad song
You're a sad song
Waiting to happen
