Breakup Song lyrics
by Emmy Russell
[Intro]
Oh, oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh
[Chorus]
I heard "I Will Always Love You"
On the way back home from Fairview
For the first time hoped I'd never be like her
I know there ain't no pretending
Every word I heard, she meant it
You can't sing like that unless you know that hurt
[Pre-Chorus]
Every note, every line, it's always you that comes to mind
[Chorus]
I don't know if this is love yet
But I know we're onto something
I ain't running 'cause I wanna see this through
The rush of feeling, I can feel it
And the sound of my heart beating
Make a melody where sad words can be true
Don't know what it proves
But I don't wanna write a breakup song about you
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh-oh, oh (Write a breakup song about you)
[Verse 2]
I've done it, crying down the hallway
Getting left there in the driveway
After words that we both know just meant goodbye
I ain't saving thoughts for later
Just to put 'em down on paper
Hoping one day it might make you change your mind
[Chorus]
I don't know if this is love yet
But I know we're onto something
I ain't running 'cause I wanna see this through
The rush of feeling, I can feel it
And the sound of my heart beating
Make a melody where sad words can be true
Don't know what it proves
But I don't wanna write a breakup song about you
[Post-Chorus]
Write a breakup song about you
[Bridge]
Taking the pain and making rhymes
Baby, please don't make me write
[Chorus]
I don't know if this is love yet
But I know we're onto something
I ain't running 'cause I wanna see this through
The rush of feeling, I can feel it
And the sound of my heart beating
Make a melody where sad words can be true
Don't know what it proves
But I don't wanna write a breakup song about you
[Outro]
Make a melody that makes you cry
Baby, that's just something I don't wanna write
Make a melody that makes you cry
A breakup song about you
