I wish we never made it past the first hello
I didn't stand a chance
I wish I knew that we were better off alone
In some other circumstance
It coulda worked out the way
You wanted it to
Baby I love the way
It breaks me in two
Straight to the heart of it
And right before it broke
Back to the start of it
That's what I miss the most
I always go straight to the heart of it
I watched your heart grow weak
While I held up the sky
It all came crashing down
And all our love was lost
In the blink of an eye
Never to be found
It didn't work out the way
We wanted it to
And baby I love the way
It breaks me in two
I always go
Straight to the heart of it
And right before it broke
Back to the start of it
That's what I miss the most
I always go straight to the heart of it
Straight to the heart of it
Yeah, right before it broke
Back to the start of it
That's what I miss the most, miss the most
I always go straight to the heart of it
Straight to the heart of it
