You went cold
You got caught
You exceeded my darkest thoughts
A poisoned chalice found in my side
I'm so numb from your lies
While you were busy breaking hearts
I was busy breaking
I was giving all my love, you were busy taking
Summer haze of summer wine
Reminded me of better times
But I let you in my heart
So, now it's busy breaking
Now it's busy breaking, oh
Went so far down this road
I felt depression deep in my soul
Drug-fuelled fights, ride your lows and highs
We played it all out till we died
Whilе you were busy breaking hеarts
I was busy breaking
I was giving all my love, you were busy taking
Summer haze of summer wine
Reminded me of better times
But I let you in my heart
So now it's busy breaking
Ooh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, oh, oh, oh
Ooh, oh, oh, oh
While you were busy breaking hearts
I was busy breaking
I was giving all my love, you were busy taking
Summer haze of summer wine
Reminded me of better times
But I let you in my heart
But I let you in my heart
Why'd I let you in my heart?
'Cause now it's busy breaking
