[Verse]
Seems you came along at the right time
Falling in love was all my idea
Others warned me about the broken hearts you left behind
Now why would you have to go and prove them right?
Now thanks to you I know just how they feel

[Chorus]
And because of you my heart is broke in two
I'm feeling like a fool for putting my trust in you
You left me wondering why you didn't even say goodbye
Well excuse me if I'm not that smart
But why'd you go and break my heart?

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
And because of you my heart is broke in two
I'm feeling like a fool for putting my trust in you
You left me wondering why you didn't even say goodbye
Well excuse me if I'm not that smart
But why'd you go and break my heart?

[Outro]
Well excuse me if I'm not that smart
But why'd you go and break my heart?
