[Vere 1]
Blindside, you hit me like a twister, babe
You give me love and then you run
And I don't know why
I guess you've got a wilder side

[Verse 2]
Oh, I can't stand it when you leave me, babe
And I know how much it hurts
When my heart breaks
Why couldn't you save me the heartache?

[Chorus]
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache, babe?
Save a little heartache, babe
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache?
Save a little heartache, babe
Save a little pain

[Verse 3]
I'm high, my love
Too late to say my feelings now
Everything about you gives me joy
But I think I am just your toy
[Verse 4]
Goodbye, my love
I know that you'll be leaving now
And I'll be with you 'til the end of days
Why couldn't you save me the heartache?

[Chorus]
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache?
Save a little heartache
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache?
Save a little heartache
Save a little pain

[Bridge]
Save a little pain
Ooh, save a little pain

[Chorus]
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache?
Save a little heartache
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache?
Save a little heartache
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache?
Save a little heartache
Why can't I get things right the very first time
Save myself a little heartache?
Save a little heartache
Save a little pain
