She loves the ones with all that wounded pride

The ones who carry all that hurt inside

Who never seem to find a place they belong

She's got a heart like a sad song



And she will give them all the love she can

Even when love won't give her half a chance

And she will stay with them till all hope is gone

She's got a heart like a sad song



There's a wedding picture she still keeps

Of the girl she was and the man he seemed to be

He left her the house with the picket fence

And walked away with her innocence



There's a wedding picture she still keeps

Of the girl she was and the man he seemed to be

He left her the house with the picket fence

And walked away with her innocence



Now from the moment that love comes to call

She's waiting for that other shoe to fall

Goodbye's the only thing that she's counting on

Oh, she's got a heart like a sad song

She's got a heart like a sad song
