[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
Everybody seems to have their own point of view
In time my friend there'll be another
Everybody wants to tell me what I should do
But I don't know if I'll recover

[Pre-Chorus: Andy Bell]
What did I do? Did I deserve it? Have I been careless with you baby?
What can I do to make it better? When I start to break it all down
When I start to break it all down
It's becoming perfectly clear to me

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
If I make it through the whole night, everything's gonna be alright
I'm sure that it's the way that it should be
And when I start to break it all down
When I start to break it all down, it's becoming perfectly clear to me

[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
Seems that I have reached a point of consciousness
My love was real and yours was tender
There is nothing else I know we could've done
'Cause I believe in sweet surrender

[Pre-Chorus: Andy Bell]
What did I do? Did I deserve it? Have I been careless with you baby?
What can I do to make it better? When I start to break it all down
When I start to break it all down
It's becoming perfectly clear to me
[Chorus: Andy Bell]
If I make it through the whole night, everything's gonna be alright
I'm sure that it's the way that it should be
And when I start to break it all down
When I start to break it all down, it's becoming perfectly clear to me

[Bridge: Andy Bell]
I said oh, when I start to break it down
When I start to break it down
When I start to break it down, down, down, down
Woah, woah, woah

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
If I make it through the whole night, everything's gonna be alright
I'm sure that it's the way that it should be
And when I start to break it all down
When I start to break it all down, it's becoming perfectly clear to me

[Outro: Andy Bell]
And when I start to break it all down
When I start to break it all down, it's becoming perfectly clear to me
