"Sad Story" lyrics

It's a sad story
When my baby wants to leave me
It's a sad story
When my baby wants to leave me
And what would it take to make you stay with me?
And what would it take to make you stay with me?

I was in love with you
But then you broke my heart
Now we've ended up right up at the start
What a good place to start

When we hung out like every day
Remember those days we made
When our love was new
So new

And you knew we would end
But I guess it was all pretend
'Cause I'm sitting here writing a song
Yes, said I'm writing a song

It's a sad story
When my baby wants to leave me
It's a sad story
When my baby wants to leave me
And what would it take to make you stay with me?
And what would it take to make you stay with me?

Our time has long moved on
I'm still playing the same old song that we used to sing
I'm hoping somehow that we
Could
Just get it back to the way that it was
As a matter of fact
I know that you still feel the same way you did about me

Hey baby, there's a chapter I missed
Maybe there's a sequel to this
I wanna know that this story
Hey, if this ain't finished, yeah

It's a sad story
When my baby wants to leave me
It's a sad story
When my baby wants to leave me

And what would it take to make you stay with me?
And what would it take to make you stay with me?
And what would it take to make you stay with me?
