American Love

[Verse 1]
You see I've got this American love
A brand new planet in the solar system
I'll kiss your neck
But I just can't look her in the eye
You leave for college
At the turn of autumn
I spent the winter
Diving to the bottom
I'll kiss your neck
But I just can't look you in the eye, yeah

[Chorus]
Big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking
(Big hearts are for breaking)
Big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking, yeah

[Verse 2]
You see I've got this critical conscience
A brand new black hole in the solar system
I'll dig my grave but I just can't stand to step inside
And when they find out (When they find out)
They'll sound every siren
Break the door down
To find a baby crying
You thought I knew it's just not right to tell a lie, yeah

[Chorus]
Big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking
(Big hearts are for breaking)
Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh, big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking, yeah

[Bridge]
Now there's no turning back
In the face of the sweat we shared
There's nowhere to run
We are so unprepared
It's a new heart attack
Brand new bricks on my back to bear
But don't say a word or they might find us there

[Verse 3]
You see I've got this American love
A hidden planet in the solar system
But keep your eyes shut
I just can't stand to say goodbye

[Chorus]
Big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking
(Big hearts are for breaking)
Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh, big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking, yeah
(Big hearts are for breaking)
Yeah, big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking
(Big hearts are for breaking)
Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh, big hearts, big hearts
Big hearts are for breaking, yeah

[Outro]
Yeah, yeah
(Big hearts are for breaking)
Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh-oh
(Big hearts are for breaking)
