Breakdown, shakedown again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you, over you

Just when our love appeared to be
Growing strong
And just when you believed that
We both belonged
You catch me out a cheating and
Foolin' 'round
You find that I'm lyin'
I feel like I'm dyin'
Here I come cryin' again

Breakdown, shakedown again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you, over you

I put you through this whole
Affair before
I broke it up, you broke it up even more
Then I begged you to patch it all
Up again
Why did you listen to me
You should have let it all be
You shouldn't put all your trust me

Breakdown, shakedown again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, way down again
Breakdown, over you, over you

Breakdown, let down again
Breakdown, over you
Breakdown, straight down again
Breakdown, over you, over you
