My love and I, we work well together But often we're apart Absence makes the heart lose weight, yeah, Till love breaks down, love breaks down Oh my, oh my, have you seen the weather The sweet September rain Rain on me like, like no other Until I drown, until I drown When love breaks down The things you do To stop the truth from hurting you When love breaks down The lies we tell, They only serve to fool ourselves When love breaks down The things you do To stop the truth from hurting you When love breaks down The lies we tell, They only serve to fool ourselves When love breaks down The things you do To stop the truth from hurting you When love breaks down When love breaks down My love and I, we are boxing clever She'll never crowd me out Fall be free as old confetti And paint the town, paint the town When love breaks down The things you do To stop the truth from hurting you When love breaks down The lies we tell, They only serve to fool ourselves When love breaks down The things you do To stop the truth from hurting you When love breaks down The lies we tell, They only serve to fool ourselves When love breaks down The things you do To stop the truth from hurting you When love breaks down The lies we tell, They only serve to fool ourselves When love breaks down When love breaks down

And now the storm subsided No more battle cries Everything in its place Or nearby And as I turn into sane Then you have become mad I planned to build with my hands So I can touch it When love breaks down Won't make a sound It won't be here when you awaken When love breaks down You ain't around it It gave you time enough to take it You were willing to lose And I was faking to win A tooth for a tooth That is just how it was then What you put in our affair Is coming back, you see If you let it be said You let it be When love breaks down Don't make a sound It fades away until you see it When love breaks down Don't fuck around it It gave you time enough to give it Now there is nothing more to say Nothing sounds better anyway This isn't what it's built for Better stop before It breaks down, yeah Just where you found it

Me and this old girl, we got history Blood, sweat, and tears up in this front seat Lotta life in the rearview and miles of memories, yeah Been through some headlights, Been through some red lights Duckin' through the small town, Runnin' from them blue lights Well under the hood she's been good to me But tonight I hope she Breaks down on the side of the road With nothin' else runnin' but the radio You and me, girl, no one else around I wouldn't mind if this engine died right here, right now It'd be right on time 'Cause, girl, the way that you're lookin' at me right now It's got me hopin' that she breaks down, yeah I think it's cool that you think she's pretty You lookin' pretty too in that shotgun seat Like the way you let the window And your hair down Slidin' up next to me Now you wanna know, how fast she goes She ain't close to slow and I'm hopin' She goes up in smoke Right now Yeah, I'm hopin' she Breaks down on the side of the road With nothin' else runnin' but the radio You and me, girl, no one else around I wouldn't mind if this engine died right here, right now It'd be right on time 'Cause, girl, the way that you're Lookin' at me right now It's got me hopin' that she breaks down It's got me hopin' that she breaks down, breaks down I can barely keep my hands on this wheel Keep my eyes on this highway I've had this girl for years Never thought I'd pray she Breaks down on the side of the road Nothin' runnin' but the radio You and me, girl, no one else around I wouldn't mind if this engine died right here, Right now It'd be right on time 'Cause, girl, the way that you're Lookin' at me right now It's got me hopin' that she breaks down It's got me hopin' that she breaks down, breaks down
