[Intro]

Ooh

Na-na, yeah

[Verse 1]

I saw you dancing in a crowded room (Uh)

You look so happy when I'm not with you

But then you saw me, caught you by surprise

A single teardrop falling from your eye

[Refrain]

I don't know why I run away

I make you cry when I run away

[Verse 2]

You could've asked me why I broke your heart

You could've told me that you fell apart

But you walked past me like I wasn't there

And just pretended like you didn't care

[Refrain]

I don't know why I run away

I make you cry when I run away

[Pre-Chorus]

Take me back 'cause I wanna stay

Save your tears for another

[Chorus]

Save your tears for another day

Save your tears for another day (So)

[Verse 3]

I made you think that I would always stay

I said some things that I should never say

Yeah, I broke your heart like someone did to mine

And now you won't love me for a second time

[Refrain]

I don't know why I run away, oh, girl

Said, I make you cry when I run away

[Pre-Chorus]

Girl, take me back 'cause I wanna stay

Save your tears for another

I realize that I'm much too late

And you deserve someone better

[Chorus]

Save your tears for another day (Oh yeah)

Save your tears for another day (Yeah)

[Refrain]

I don't know why I run away

I'll make you cry when I run away

[Chorus]

Save your tears for another day

Ooh, girl, I said (Ah)

Save your tears for another day (Ah)

[Outro]

Save your tears for another day (Ah)

Save your tears for another day (Ah)
