[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 falling from your eye

[Refrain]
I don't know why I run away (Mm)
I make you cry when I run away (Mm)

[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 (Mm)
I make you cry when I run away (Mm)

[Pre-Chorus]
Take me back 'cause I wanna stay
Save your tears for another

[Chorus]
Save your tears for another day (Ooh)
Save your tears for anothеr day (Ooh)

[Verse 3]
I made you think that I would always stay
I said some things that I should nevеr say
I broke your heart like someone did to mine
Now you won't love me for a second time

[Refrain]
I don't know why I run away (Mm)
I make you cry when I run away (Mm)

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Save your tears for another day (Ooh-ooh)
Save your tears for another day (Ooh-ooh)
Save your tears for another day (Ooh-ooh)
Save your tears for another day (Ooh-ooh)
