[Verse 1]
If it's gonna happen, then it's gonna happen
That's just the way that it is
Oh, love comes along and it don't take long
'Til it slips through my fingertips
I could make some excuses, but darlin' the truth is
I'm just the reckless kind
And I don't wanna leave you to pick up the pieces
Oh, no matter how I try

[Chorus]
Girl, I break everything I touch
Little girl, that's close enough
Seems like every heart I've ever loved
I break everything I touch

[Verse 2]
I can't look in your eyes and tell you a lie
I'd love to leave here with you
Oh, but darlin' the fact is
I'm always attracted to everything I shouldn't do
Oh, so, you better know, before I lose control
We throw it all to chance
Girl, your welcome to stay, but all I've got to say
Before you lay your heart in my hands

[Chorus]
Yeah, I break everything I touch
Little girl, that's close enough
Seems like every heart I've ever loved
I break everything I touch

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
Well I break everything I touch
Little girl, that's close enough
Seems like every heart I've ever loved
I break everything I touch

[Outro]
Yeah, I break everything I touch
Little girl, that's close enough
Seems like every heart I've ever loved
I break everything I touch

After almost 15 years at the top of his format, reigning ACM “Artist of the Decade” Jason Aldean has seen trends come and go. Hell, he helped bring a few out of the shadows, like a Country-music Columbus making the mainstream’s first contact with hard rock (“Hicktown”), hip-hop (“Dirt Road Anthem”), and R&B (“Burnin’ It Down”). For 9, Aldean’s ninth studio project, he offers 16 interwoven tracks in an era of stand-alone singles and superstar EPs, holding his ground for a modern album with an old-school soul. A three-time ACM Entertainer of the Year, Aldean’s a card-carrying member of the Country’s elite headliners whose incendiary tours are nearing legendary status. Also a dominant force on the charts, he’s scored 23 Number Ones and notably, all eight of Aldean’s previous studio albums have been certified Gold or Platinum by the RIAA. He’s the only Country act in history to top the all-genre Billboard 200 four times (in a row, no less), racking up four billion streams and more than 18 million albums sold along the way.
