this is how a heart breaks

Rob Thomas

Don?t you wanna go for a ride
Just keep your hands inside
And make the most out of life
Now don?t you take it for granted
Life is like a mean machine
It made a mess out of me
It left me caught between
Like an angry dream I was stranded
I was stranded

And I?m steady but I?m starting to shake
And I don?t know how much more I can take

Well, this is it now, everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks

Don?t you wanna go for a ride now to the other side
Feel so good you could cry
Now won?t you do what I told you
I remember when you used to be shy
And once we were so fine, you and I
Now why you gotta make it so hard on me
Hey, it?s hard on me

And I?m sorry but it?s not a mistake
And I?m running but you?re getting away

Well this is it now, everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks

You?re not the best thing that I knew
Never was
Never cared too much for all this hanging around
It's just the same thing all the time
Never get what I want
Never get too close to the end of a line
You?re just the same thing that I knew

Hell this is it now, everybody get down
This is all I can take
This is how a heart breaks
You take a hit now
You feel it break down
Make you stay wide awake
This is how a heart breaks
