Put a bow upon the door

So don't you play that awful song
Dm G7
The one that cannot be unheard

The one that feels so right it must be wrong

But still you sing along to every word
Crescendo

'Cause love is an accident

Waiting to happen

To me and to you
Love is an accident
Waiting to happen

And accidents will happen
Accidents will happen
Accidents will happen
