The Writer

[Intro]

Ooo, yeah, oh, oh

Oh, yeah

[Verse 1]

Hey, she put a pen to my heart and wrote down her name, yeah

And ever since then, my life just ain't been the same, no

She left a mark with every word that she wrote

Well, maybe I should've know who she was

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause she had me at A Once Upon A Time

And all at once, she blew my mind and broke my heart into pieces

I didn't know I was just a character

Another chapter in the works

Another victim of her words

[Chorus]

'Cause she was the writer

She was the star

Yeah, she was the writer

And she wrote off my heart

And I knew because when I said I loved her, that's when she found another

And that's how, that's how, that's how the story goes

[Verse 2]

She wrote me into her life so late in the book

And so by the end of the paragraph, I was so sure

Oh, I didn't know I was living by day to day, page to page

What a shame, yeah

I was just a footnote in her game

[Pre-Chorus]

'Cause she had me at A Once Upon A Time

And all at once, she blew my mind and broke my heart into pieces

I didn't know I was just a character

Another chapter in the works

Another victim of her words

[Chorus]

Oh, 'cause she was the writer

She was the star

Yeah, she was the writer

And she wrote off my heart

And I knew because when I said I loved her, that's when she found another

And that's how, that's how, that's how the story goes

[Bridge]

It goes on and on and on

But for me, it all went wrong

And that's how, that's how the story goes

It goes on and on and on

But for me, it didn't last too long

And now our time's over and gone

[Chorus]

'Cause she was the writer

She was the star (She was the star)

She was the writer

And she wrote off my heart (She wrote it off)

And I knew because when I said I loved her, that's when she found another (She found another)

And that's how, that's how, that's how the story goes

[Outro]

That's how it goes, yeah

Ooh, it goes on and on, ooh
