That's the Breaks
Alright, I go something like this
On my pillow last night
I thought I saw you dreaming
Just a sudden glance of happiness gone by
Suddenly came to me, you see
Just a while ago when you left me
You say your heart would be broken, little girl
But that's just the breaks of life
When you're breaking me
Well, it's a time of day
You're nice, but you're not that nice
If you'd only come and go a while with me
But when you're old and grey, sweetheart
You're my devotion
But that's the breaks of life, you see
That's the breaks
Oh, when that song breaks down
And beat your heart
And you know it ain't wrong and right
Honey, you know it's true, for a while
What I say is only to my own appetite
Well, in the morning when you come back and saw me
Please and then be mine
You hang your head by the gold door
And then cry, cry please be mine
Crying in my head
In my pillow
In my great, great little whole delight
Please be emotional
My darling, hold me, oh by my grave
But that's the breaks, you see
On the other side of life
Well, when your flowers are falling my way
And your grace is all ado
Girl, when your head lie
It's most of that way, no
It's a hard way, might as well too
But when your picture's often cloudy
Like a Mona Lisa on your waist
Oh, in my teardrops dropping
Don't you think that's how this work
And you run away
From me at midnight, broke my heart, and
Now it's too late to cover all that up, you see
But when your future hanging low
But it's always right down with my wife
But that's the breaks on the other side of life
On my pillow last night
I thought I saw you dreaming
Just a sudden glance of happiness gone by
Suddenly came to me, you see
Just a while ago when you left me
You say your heart would be broken, little girl
But that's just the breaks of life
When you're breaking me
Well, it's a time of day
You're nice, but you're not that nice
If you'd only come and go a while with me
But when you're old and grey, sweetheart
You're my devotion
But that's the breaks of life, you see
That's the breaks
Oh, when that song breaks down
And beat your heart
And you know it ain't wrong and right
Honey, you know it's true, for a while
What I say is only to my own appetite
Well, in the morning when you come back and saw me
Please and then be mine
You hang your head by the gold door
And then cry, cry please be mine
Crying in my head
In my pillow
In my great, great little whole delight
Please be emotional
My darling, hold me, oh by my grave
But that's the breaks, you see
On the other side of life
Well, when your flowers are falling my way
And your grace is all ado
Girl, when your head lie
It's most of that way, no
It's a hard way, might as well too
But when your picture's often cloudy
Like a Mona Lisa on your waist
Oh, in my teardrops dropping
Don't you think that's how this work
And you run away
From me at midnight, broke my heart, and
Now it's too late to cover all that up, you see
But when your future hanging low
But it's always right down with my wife
But that's the breaks on the other side of life
