[Verse 1]
I saw you dancing in a crowded room
You look so happy when I'm not with you
But then you saw me, caught you by surprise
A single teardrop running from your eye

[Pre-Chorus]
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 that you didn't care

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know why I run away
I make you cry when I run away

[Chorus 1]
Take me back 'cause I wanna stay
And save your tears for another
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day

[Verse 3]
So I made you think that I would always stay
I said some things that I would never say
You broke my heart like someone did to mine
Now you won't love me for a second time

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know why I run away, oh boy
Said, I make you cry when I run away

[Chorus 2]
Take me back 'cause I wanna stay
And save your tears for another
And I realize that I'm much too late
And you deserve someone better
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't know why I run away
I'll make you cry when I run away

[Outro]
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another day
Save your tears for another
