I thought it was forever
Then you took my love for granted
I tried so hard to please you

Every way I could
Every time I think of you
But all I have to say is
But to me it's a sad affair
To me it's a sad, sad affair

Knowing you as I do
I think you will survive
It can take a year or more
But just let's be alive
Everyday and now I think of you
But all I've got to say
To me it's a sad, sad affair
To me it's a sad, sad affair

When you know it's over
And love goes out the door
Peaking up those pieces
Will hurt so much more
You know I can wish
And you can hope

All I have, all I have to say
But to me it's a sad, sad affair
Yes to me it's a sad affair
Yes to me it's a sad affair

You can wish
And I can hope
There's nothing that we can do
Cause to me and to you
It's a sad affair
To me it's a sad affair
Yes to me it's a sad affair, sad affair
