Don't you know you're in love
with a sad girl
Can't you taste the salt from her tears
in the cracks of her lips
Do you not understand that she holds you so close
because she's paralyzed with fear
that you'll drift away
like every other good memory
The days you aren't there
are the days she morphs into an empty shell
though even when you're kissing her
she's only faking that pretty little smile
you now can't live without
Don't you know you're in love with a sad girl
Can't you see she's in love with you too?

Don't you know you're in love
with a sad girl
Can't you taste the salt from her tears
in the cracks of her lips
Do you not understand that she holds you so close
because she's paralyzed with fear
that you'll drift away
like every other good memory
The days you aren't there
are the days she morphs into an empty shell
though even when you're kissing her
she's only faking that pretty little smile
you now can't live without
Don't you know you're in love with a sad girl
Can't you see she's in love with you too?
