Lyrics
"Time" is what you said to me.
"Just draw the line if you can wait for me"
But I'm just to proud to say I've had to walk away
Now I've realised where danger can take me.
Now, I'm left in a broken dream
And I'll never wake up unless this world believes
That I've been knocked down and I've been the one to bleed.
As I close my eyes tonight, there's only you with me.
So what about us?
What about all the things you promised me?
Now it's such a price to pay
'Cause love breaks down in the summertime,
Love breaks down.
Hey, remember songs we used to play?
Alone in the dark just before we lost our way
But I think you know that words cannot sing for you.
The tears from your eyes so blue
Could never disguise what was true.
What about us?
What about all the things that you promised me?
Now it's such a price to pay
'Cause love breaks down in the summertime,
Love breaks down.
Yeah, what about us?
What about all the things that you promised me?
Now it hurts me way too much when I see you.
You said "this way" and I followed you
And now there ain't no me and there ain't no you
When Love breaks down in the summertime
Love breaks down in the summertime...
Love breaks down in the summertime...
