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...
