Tear Me Down - Yarn, John Oates

How could something that felt so right

Last this long

Break down so fast

Turn out so wrong

So wrong

If I gave you everything you want

Would it change your mind?

Go ahead and tear me down

Won’t you just leave me alone for dead

Go ahead and tear me down

Or you could come and carry me home

Make me your own

And put me back together instead

How could something that shone so bright

Turn so dark

Cut deep in my heart

And take all I’ve got

All I’ve got

I gave you everything you want

But the light’s still on

Go ahead and tear me down

Won’t you just leave me alone for dead

Go ahead and tear me down

Or you could come and carry me home

Make me your own

And put me back together instead

Go on and knock me out

You’re the only one who knows how

My heart’s in your hands

Stop toying with it

I’m already bleeding

Go ahead and tear me down

Won’t you just leave me alone for dead

Go ahead and tear me down

Or you could come and carry me home

Make me your own

And put me back together instead
