Nina Simone
Break Down and Let It All Out
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
I've held back my tears just as long as I could
Now my eyes can see it's all over for you and me
And holding back ain't gonna do no good
So I'm gonna break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
I've hidden my heart too many times before
Now my aching heart knows that we're apart
I can't hide it anymore
So I'm gonna break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
I remember when you used to love me and oh, how sweet it was
But it's not enough just to remember, 'cause what good is the past?
Once upon a time, all those old memories can set my heart at ease
So before I lose my mind, yeah
I'm gonna break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
My eyes are open and now I see it's all over for you and me
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
Now my aching heart knows that we're apart
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
All those old memories can set my heart at ease
Break down and let it all out
Break down and let it all out
