The thing about a break up Sometimes you just gotta break down Coming off a great love There's plenty of pain to pass around Like a tip jar in a dive bar Full of broken hearts It's a lonely crowd The thing about a breakup Sometimes you just gotta break down
When the only thing you want is The only thing that you can't have When the part that you can't take is Knowing you can't take it back She's on the good side, goodbye On the right sight of free And you're on the wrong end of a long night On the left side of leavin' Yeah On the left side of leavin'
The thing about a last kiss You never know that it's the last Till they call the last call And you're just drinking about the past Like the bottom of the bottle Knows how to get her back The thing about a last kiss You never know that it's the last
When the only thing you want is The only thing that you can't have When the part that you can't take is Knowing you can't take it back She's on the good side, goodbye On the right sight of free And you're on the wrong end of a long night On the left side of leavin' Yeah On the left side of leavin' Stuck on the left side
You're on the drunk part of drinking The can't stop part of thinking The wide awake part of sleeping, woah You're on the broke part of breaking The mistake part of making You're on the cane part of shaking, woah
When the only thing you want is The only thing that you can't have When the part that you can't take is Knowing you can't take it back She's on the good side, goodbye On the right sight of free And you're on the wrong end of a long night On the left side of leavin' Yeah On the left side of leavin'
