Rob Thomas - This Is How a Heart Breaks Lyrics

Complimentary "This Is How a Heart Breaks" Ringtone

Don’t you wanna go for a ride 
Just keep your hands inside 
And make the most out of life 
Now don’t you take it for granted 
Life is like a mean machine 
It made a mess out of me 
It left me caught between 
Like an angry dream I was stranded 
I was stranded 

And I’m steady but I’m starting to shake 
And I don’t know how much more I can take 

Well, this is it now, everybody get down 
This is all I can take 
This is how a heart breaks 
You take a hit now 
You feel it break down 
Make you stay wide awake 
This is how a heart breaks 

Don’t you wanna go for a ride down to the other side 
Feel so good you could cry 
Now won’t you do what I told you 
I remember when you used to be shy 
yeah, once we were so fine, you and I 
Now why you gotta make it so hard on me 
Hey, it’s hard on me 

And I’m sorry but it’s not a mistake 
And I’m running but you’re getting away 

Well this is it now, everybody get down 
This is all I can take 
This is how a heart breaks 
You take a hit now 
You feel it break down 
Make you stay wide awake 
This is how a heart breaks 

You’re not the best thing that I knew 
Never was 
Never cared too much for all this hanging around 
It's just the same thing all the time 
Never get what I want 
Never get too close to the end of a line 
You’re just the same thing that I knew 
Back before the time when I was learning the ropes 

Hey this is it now, everybody get down 
This is all I can take 
This is how a heart breaks 
You take a hit now 
You feel it break down 
Make you stay wide awake 
This is how a heart breaks 
[until end]
