I Am Trying to Break Your Heart

I'm an American aquarium drinker
 And I asassin down the avenue
 Been hidin' out in the big city blinkin'
 What was I thinkin' when I let go of you?
 So let's forget about the, about the tongue-tied lightnin'
 And let's undress just like cross-eyed strangers
 This is not a joke, so please stop smilin'
 What was I thinkin' when I said it didn't hurt?
 I am tryin' to break your heart
 I said that I am tryin' to break your heart
 Still I'd be lyin' if I said it wasn't easy
 Yeah, I am tryin' to break your heart
 Come on
 Nah-na-na-na-na-naa, no
 I want to glide through those brown eyes dreamin'
 Take it from the inside, baby hold on tight
 You were so right when you said that I've been drinkin'
 What was I thinkin' when we said good night?
 I want to hold you in the Bible-black predawn
 You're quite a quiet domino, bury me now
 Take off your band-aid 'cause I don't believe in touchdowns
 What was I thinkin' when we said hello?
 I'd think that I am tryin' to break your heart
 I said that I am tryin' to break your heart
 Still I'd be lyin' if I said it wasn't easy
 That I am tryin' to break your heart, break your heart
 Well, I'm goin' away, where you can't look for me
 Oh, and where I'm goin', you cannot come, no
 Ooh, no one's ever goin' to take my night from me
 I laid it down, a ghost is born
 A ghost is born
 I said a ghost is born
 You see baby
 I'd always thought that if I held you tightly that
 You'd always love me like you did back then, shoot
 But I fell asleep and the city kept blinkin', yeah
 What was I thinkin' when I let you back in?
 I said that I am tryin' to break your heart
 Oh, Lordy I am tryin' to break your heart
 Still I'd be lyin' if I said it wasn't easy
 I am tryin' to break your heart, break your heart
 I am lyin' to break your heart (disposable dixie-cup drinkin')
 For all those things that you did inside me baby (I am sassin' down the avenue)
 I am tryin' to bring you down (I'm hidin' out in the big city blinkin')
 Why? Why? (What was I thinkin' when I let go of you?)
 'Cause I still love you
