Beneath the fog is the city I know too well
And it melts like ice and it burns like hell
And the freeways always stopped at 6 o?clock
So I?m leaving without you
Whether you like it or not no no no

Cause you?re breaking me down
It's you?re breaking me down
You?re breaking me down down down down down
It's you?re breaking me down
It's you?re breaking me down
Breaking me down down down down down

And the wind blows the leaves off the trees
Oh my, another sign of spring bringing winter to its knees
They say the grass is greener on the other side
Well I wanna know all about the darkness behind your eyes

Cause you?re breaking me down
It's you?re breaking me down
Breaking me down down down down down

But the change
Is so constant over me
Take me and show me who I need to be
Well tell me who I need to be

So Asphalt a little bit darker
And it helps you to remember
When the rain fell in
Sweet sweet november
Be careful who you fall in love with
Cause someone somewhere won?t approve
Oh you know the prettiest girls always seem to keep their eyes on you

Cause you?re breaking me down
It's you?re breaking me down
Breaking me down down down down down
You break me down brake
You?re breaking me down
Breaking me down down down down down
