'though it was a dark day
My heart was broken
'though I didn't really mind the pain
It was better than feeling nothing
But oh Lord,
don't you make me go through this painful life alone
'though it was a cold day
My door was open
And I decided to run away
I'd be better off having nothing
But oh Lord,
Don't you take me, no, don't you make me go back home
Serial Monogamy
's happening again to me
Serial Monogamous
synonymous with us
Saw you there at a party
You were there with your boyfriend
(Oh, I don't like that guy)
I wait around 'til you're all alone
Or at least not by him
(Maybe when he's in the bathroom)
I know you claim you're not on the market
at this time
(yeah, but you haven't even heard my offer yet)
But if I invest now
Baby you know I'm next in line
Or at least in the top five
And maybe in a year or three
You'll be at the party, crying over me
While across the room, some other guy
Looks at you with that oh-so-sexy eye
The eye
The eye
The I
Serial Monogamy
's happening again to me
Serial Monogamous
synonymous with us, with us
And maybe in a year or three
You'll be at the party, crying over me
But don't you notice him across the room
He'll give you that sexy eye and you know another heartbreak's coming soon
So soon
So soon
I swoon
Going to the chapel and we're
gonna get married
Going to the chapel and we're
gonna get buried
Gee, I think I love you, so let's
go and get married
We'll never be lonely again
