When Love Breaks Down - Lisa Stansfield

My love and I, we work well together

But often we’re apart

Absence makes the heart lose weight, yeah

Till love breaks down, love breaks down

Ooh my, oh my, have you seen the weather?

The sweet September rain

Rain on me, like no other

Until I drown, until I drown

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

When love breaks down, the lies we tell

They only serve to fool ourselves

When love breaks down, when love breaks down

My love and I, we’re boxing clever

He’ll never crowd me out

(He'll never crowd me out)

Both be free as old confetti

And paint the town, paint the town

(And paint the town, paint the town)

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

When loves breaks, down the lies we tell

They only serve to fool ourselves

When love breaks down, we join the wrecks

Who leave their hearts for easy sex

When love breaks down, when love breaks down

Oh, yeah, when love breaks down

Love breaks down, love breaks down

Love breaks down, when love breaks down

My love and I, we were high and climbin'

Into the sky of blue

Loud with colors, of a rainbow

A changing view, changing view

When love breaks down, the things you do

To stop the truth from hurting you

When love breaks down, the lies we tell

They only serve to fool ourselves

When love breaks down, we join the wrecks

Who leave their hearts for easy sex

When love breaks down, when love breaks down
