Break My Heart Tonight

Well, I got empty bottles and legal papers

Wrinkled up all over the floor

My pen won't write and my guitar doesn't

Have a song in it anymore

I can write another love song

Yeah, but first you got to find someone to love

I could write another fight song

Yeah, but there's got to be something to be proud of

And they say misery love's company

But it damn sure ain't lookin' for me

I'll be alright, I just gotta find someone

To break my heart tonight

Going out, walkin' on Avenue B

And I ain't comin' back until dawn

And find some stranger in a Greenich bar

To shower my affection upon

Well, maybe she'll stay till one fateful day

When we realize we've got nothin' left

And maybe I'll find she's messed up my mind

And I can get back to doing what I do best

And they say misery love's company

But lately it ain't lookin' for me

I'll be alright, I just gotta find someone

To break my heart tonight

Well, all these A&R guys keep knockin' on my door

I guess the last batch wasn't good enough

'Cause they keep on wanting more and more and they say

Write what you know and it just goes to show

You gotta write your own destiny

I'll be alright, I just gotta find someone

To break my heart tonight

And they say misery love's company

But it damn sure ain't lookin' for me

I'll be alright, I just gotta find someone

To break my heart tonight
