Break The News

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I will always be the one to break the news, if it's alright

I never wanna bring you down, no

I will always be the one to speak the truth, if it don't hurt

I never wanna see you frown, no

We're laid in

I'm so happy that it's raining out again

I'm so made up that we're naked in our bed

Like we were twenty-four back when

Who will hammer out?

The deeper question needin' sorting out

If there's an answer we will find it with our doubt

We're a little more than friends

We fell through time and space

And cast upon this place

And so far we've been saved

I will always be the one to break the news, if it's alright

I never wanna bring you down, no

I will always be the one to speak the truth, if it don't hurt

I never wanna see you frown, no

I never wanna bring you down, no

I never wanna bring you down

It's raining out

I'm so made up, we've been makin' out

Watching movies in our dressing gowns

Like we were twenty-four or there about

What matters most?

Life's amazing but it's been a bumpy road

No more than lately things have been a little wild

Am I an adult or a child?

Don't feel any different now

We watch the world go by

And so far we've been fine

I will always be the one to break the news, if it's alright

I never wanna bring you down, no

I will always be the one to speak the truth, if it don't hurt

I never wanna see you frown, no

I never wanna bring you down

We fell through time and space

We chanced upon this place

And so far we've been saved

I will always be the one to break the news, if it's alright

I never wanna bring you down

I will always be the one to speak the truth, if it don't hurt

I never wanna see you frown, no

I never wanna bring you down

I will always be the one to break the news, if it's alright

I never wanna bring you down, no

I will always be the one to speak the truth, if it don't hurt

I never wanna see you frown

Never wanna see you down

Never wanna see you down, no
