Messenger (1999) 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 (3 x's) One more sign...
