Breaking Down Is Hard to Do

Darling girl, come run and see
All the damage that you've done to me
From the wreckage that was me and you
And breaking down is hard to do

You're the angel and I'm the cad
So good together but ... the timing's bad
We paint the town, first red, then blue
And breaking down is hard to do

I never meant to leave in pieces
I never meant to be that small
But as the honesty increases
There's nothing left of me at all

And darling girl should look away (ooo ooo ooo)
It just gets ugly if you choose to stay (ooo ooo ooo)
I'll disappear and see it through (ooo ooo ooo)
And breaking down is hard to do (ooo ooo ooo)

I never meant to leave in pieces
I never thought myself so small
But as your love for me decreases
Just grab your shoes and leave the ball

And look at all these angry words we throw around like paint
Airing each complaint, when we might have shown restraint

I never meant to leave in pieces
I never meant to be that small
But as the honesty increases
There's nothing left of me at all
