Why can't you hear your soulmate's plea? Why don't you feel all the pain within me? I know you'll never let me touch you again I'm shell shocked, another broken man Break my heart, breaking love is such a fancy art Breaking love is a game you've learned how to play to win Please don't reject my last request Don't decide that I gave you my best I lived our love in a childhood dream But I never dreamed we'd be a losing team Now every time you cannot meet my eyes My love shatters and a piece of it dies I watch you move and it tears me apart Breaking my love as you're breaking my heart Break my heart, breaking love is such a fancy art Breaking love is a game to you, only a game to you And so you break my heart, breaking my love as you're breaking my heart Breaking love is a game you've learned how to play to win Breaking love is a game you've learned how to play to win |

I don't think much explanation is necessary for this song, and after Ghost of Our Love, I don't think I can tell it again. Breaking Love is a song I wrote about two months after having the atomic divorce bomb dropped on me. The song is about Mona, my ex-wife, high school lover, soul mate, best friend, confidant, life saver, and ultimately, mother of my two sons. Mona left me. She threw me away like used garbage. Later on, when she took my boys away from me, she almost killed me, and actually crippled me emotionally and spiritually. But the pain awoke the sleeping Muse, and the songs started flowing again. God works in very STRANGE ways. |
