[Verse 1]
Picture this all down the block
Bars are closed at eight o'clock
'Cause don't nobody need to drown no pain
Every song on that jukebox
Be party time, Top 40 pop
There'd be no blue eyes cryin' in the rain
Aw, now, baby, wouldn't that be a shame?

[Chorus]
Girl, I know we couldn't work this out
I guess what goes up, it must come down
Yeah, I wish we coulda made it
Hey, but it's okay 'cause
Heartbreak makes the world go 'round
And 'round and 'round

[Verse 2]
Whiskey'd be collectin' dust
Bartenders, they'd be outta luck
If couples like us never did break up
If all the cards were Aces
Nah, there wouldn't be no Vegas
And we both know that wouldn't be no fun

[Chorus]
Girl, I know we couldn't work this out
I guess what goes up, it must come down
Yeah, I wish we coulda made it
Hey, but it's okay 'cause
Heartbreak makes the world go 'round
And 'round and 'round
[Bridge]
So cheers to you and me
For keepin' Friday neon nights alive and well
This is the way it's supposed to be
Ah, at least that's what I'm tryna tell myself

[Chorus]
Girl, I know we couldn't work this out
I guess what goes up, it must come down
Yeah, I wish we coulda made it
Hey, but it's okay 'cause
Heartbreak makes the world go 'round
So if it's goodbye, see you later
We're doin' them a favor
'Cause heartbreak makes the world go 'round

[Outro]
Mm, 'round and 'round and 'round
Mm, 'round and 'round
