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 no other

Until I drown, until I drown

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the lies we tell,

They only serve to fool ourselves,

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

/9

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

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the lies we tell,

They only serve to fool ourselves,

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the lies we tell,

They only serve to fool ourselves,

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

/9 [/]

When love breaks down, you join the wrecks

Who leave their hearts for easy sex

/9

When love breaks down, when love breaks down
