lyrics
I’ve been trying to tell you baby
I’m splitting at the seams
It seems that every time I turn around
I’m caught up in my idiot dreams
I follow you whatever you do
I’m the last train waiting for you
Why do you do the things that you say you don’t do?
I see you brought the tears for your eyes
Your beauty cannot be televised
I’m dancing to your tune ‘cause I’m mesmerized
But oh, take a word of my advice
It’s a long shot betting on you
But that don’t worry me baby, I knew
From the moment I saw you do the things you say you don’t do
Breakdown
Meet me down at the mall
Cause you can’t expect us all to get your number and not call
Just a young kid in America
Everybody’s carried away with ya
So come on it’s a beautiful day
And won’t ya come and take a fall?
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Don’t it feel good?
You know you gotta set me free, honey
Tell me there’s a chance for me
Oh ‘cause all I ever wanted to be
Was in your heart
Just in your heart
PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS x 2
I’m splitting at the seams
It seems that every time I turn around
I’m caught up in my idiot dreams
I follow you whatever you do
I’m the last train waiting for you
Why do you do the things that you say you don’t do?
I see you brought the tears for your eyes
Your beauty cannot be televised
I’m dancing to your tune ‘cause I’m mesmerized
But oh, take a word of my advice
It’s a long shot betting on you
But that don’t worry me baby, I knew
From the moment I saw you do the things you say you don’t do

Meet me down at the mall
Cause you can’t expect us all to get your number and not call
Just a young kid in America
Everybody’s carried away with ya
So come on it’s a beautiful day
And won’t ya come and take a fall?
Breakdown, breakdown, breakdown
Don’t it feel good?
You know you gotta set me free, honey
Tell me there’s a chance for me
Oh ‘cause all I ever wanted to be
Was in your heart
Just in your heart
