[Verse 1]
I thought it was forever
Then you took my love for granted
I tried so hard to please you
Every way I could

[Chorus]
Every time I think of you
But all I have to say Is
But to me it's a sad affair
To me it's a sad, sad affair

[Verse 2]
Knowing you as I do
I think you will survive
It can take a year or more
But just let's be alive

[Chorus]
Everyday and now I think of you
But all I've got to say
To me it's a sad, sad affair
To me it's a sad, sad affair

[Verse 3]
When you know it's over
And love goes out the door
Peaking up those pieces
Will hurt so much more
[Outro]
You know I can wish and you can hope
All I have, all I have to say
But to me it's a sad, sad affair
Yes to me, it's a sad affair
Yes to me, it's a sad affair
You can wish and I can hope
There's nothing that we can do
Because to me and to you
It's a sad affair, to me it's a sad affair
Yes to me, it's a sad affair, sad affair
