[Verse 1]
Is this what you want?
Every finger points at me
This might be funny if it wasn't such a tragedy
After a while
It gets hard to smile
And pretend that things are O.K
So when you need me in the middle of the night
I won't be there 'cause
[Chorus]
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Yeah oh yeah
[Verse 2]
So cross yourself now
Get down on your knees and pray
But no powers from heaven
Could ever take the darkness away
I tried climbing the walls
But you built them too tall
So its time I walk away now
And when you call me in the middle of the night
There's no one there 'cause
[Chorus]
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Yeah oh yeah
Reach out a hand to hold
Inside when the distance calls
Two hearts into their phase
Remember that first embrace
But I, can't worry, anymore
So when you need me in the middle of the night
I won't be there cos
[Chorus]
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Oh yeah
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Yeah oh yeah
Is this what you want?
Every finger points at me
This might be funny if it wasn't such a tragedy
After a while
It gets hard to smile
And pretend that things are O.K
So when you need me in the middle of the night
I won't be there 'cause
[Chorus]
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Yeah oh yeah
[Verse 2]
So cross yourself now
Get down on your knees and pray
But no powers from heaven
Could ever take the darkness away
I tried climbing the walls
But you built them too tall
So its time I walk away now
And when you call me in the middle of the night
There's no one there 'cause
[Chorus]
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Yeah oh yeah
Reach out a hand to hold
Inside when the distance calls
Two hearts into their phase
Remember that first embrace
But I, can't worry, anymore
So when you need me in the middle of the night
I won't be there cos
[Chorus]
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Oh yeah
You're always breaking my heart
You're always breaking my heart
You always tear it apart
Yeah oh yeah
