Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm dazzled hard, we're in Berlin
And when you leave, just break it down to me softly
The veils of rain, I'm shattering
I dip into the love we had with ease
Lemon and ginger beer, soap suds on navels
If I've upset you, could you maybe say so?
Has something changed, have I just missed the memo?
Tell me what I don't know
Oh, won't you
[Chorus]
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Or I'll forget myself, I don't want no one else
[Verse 2]
The pressure thuds behind my eyes
You look at me as if it's my fault that we're stood here
The cobalt of your scarf has pulled clear
Stealing me traffic cones, smiling at babies
I must admit I wanted you to save me
Now I'm sat on the ground, feeling half crazy
I don't want you to go
Oh, won't you
[Chorus]
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Or I'll forget myself, I don't want no one else
[Refrain]
Or I'll forget myself, I don't want no one else
Or I'll forget myself, I don't want no one else
Or I'll forget myself, I don't want no one else
Oh, won't you
[Chorus]
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Break it to me softly, I don't want no one else
Break it to me, break it to me, break it to me
Or I'll forget myself, I don't want no one else
