I didn't know... 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 Maybe I should've know who she was 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 Cause she was the writer She was the star She was the writer And she wrote off my heart And I knew because when I said I loved her, she found another And that's how, that's how, that's how the story goes She wrote me into a life so late in the book, yeah 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
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 Cause she was the writer She was the star She was the writer And she wrote off my heart And I knew because when I said I loved her, she found another And that's how, that's how, that's how the story goes 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 is over and gone Cause she was the writer She was the star She was the writer And she wrote off my heart And I knew because when I said I loved her, she found another And that's how, that's how, that's how the story goes That's how it goes yeah
