I'm an American aquarium drinker
And I am sassin' down the avenue
Been hiding out in the big city blinking
What was I thinking when I let go of you?
So let's forget about the, about the tongue-tied lightning
Let's undress just like cross-eyed strangers
This is not a joke, so please stop smiling
What was I thinking when I said it didn't hurt?
I am trying to break your heart
I said that I am trying to break your heart
Still I'd be lying if I said it wasn't easy
Yeah I am trying to break your heart
Come on
Nah na na na na naa, no
I want to glide through those brown eyes dreaming
Take it from the inside, baby hold on tight
You were so right when you said that I've been drinking
What was I thinking when we said good night?
I want to hold you in the Bible-black predawn
You're quite a quiet domino, bury me now
Take off your Band-Aid because I don't believe in touchdowns
What was I thinking when we said hello?
I'd think that I am trying to break your heart
I said that I am trying to break your heart
Still I'd be lying if I said it wasn't easy
That I am trying to break you heart
Well I'm going away, where you can't look for me
Oh, and where I'm going, you cannot come, no
Ooh no one's ever going to take my night from me
I laid it down, a ghost is born
A ghost is born
I said a ghost is born
You see baby
I'd always thought that if I held you tightly
You'd always love me like you did back then, shoot
Then I fell asleep and the city kept blinking
What was I thinking when I let you back in?
I said that I am trying to break your heart
Oh Lordy I am trying to break your heart
Still I'd be lying if I said it wasn't easy
I am trying to break your heart, break your heart
(Simultaneous)
I am lying to break your heart | Disposable Dixie-cup drinking
For all those things that you
Did inside me baby | I am sassin' down the avenue
I am trying to bring you down | I'm hiding out in the big city blinking
Why? Why? | What was I thinking when I let go of you?
Cause I still love you
