"Sad Story" lyrics

I'm afraid of getting older
Without ever having told you
Not to worry, I'll keep all your secrets safe with me
And I'm aware of what I owe you

This bad blood between you and me
Got me losing sleep
Let me show you there's more to me
Than what's in your diary

Can we wipe away some of the tears from the past
We dropped the pen and then the pages started burning so fast
Write something new
Cause I don't wanna lose you
And right now
We're nothing but a sad story

I'm afraid of getting wiser
'Till no love can take me higher
So I write the loss of losing touch
With all the love that has been been
Can we save some from the fire

Let me show you there's more to me
Than what's in your diary

Can we wipe away some of the tears from the past
We dropped the pen and then the pages started burning so fast
Write something new
Cause I don't wanna lose you
And right now
We're nothing but a sad story

Tell me something I know
Lend me some of your memories from all the places that we used to go
I'd rather not let go
So please, keep some of the photos where I look happy and you look beautiful

Can we wipe away some of the tears from the past
We dropped the pen and then the pages started burning so fast
Write something new
Cause I don't wanna lose you
And right now
We're nothing but a sad story
