Alejandro Escovedo - Excuse Me While I Break My Own Heart Tonight lyrics

[Intro] One, two, three, four [Verse 1] Well, excuse me if I break my own heart It was mine from the finish I guess It was mine from the start The situation just don't seem so God damn smart The situation is tearing me apart So you'll have to excuse me if I break my own heart [Pre-Chorus] Well, excuse me if I break my own heart tonight Some things aren't born too strong They have to learn how to fight The situation keeps me drinking every God damn day and night The situation don't seem so right [Chorus] So excuse me if I break my own heart tonight Well, excuse me if I break my own heart tonight After all it was mine, after all it was mine After all it was mine Can I have it back sometime? [Verse 2] So if the rain falls down on your Mississippi town Let your eyes drift easy into mine If the rain falls down on your Mississippi town Let your eyes drift into mine Your on the road, but your diary entry reads blank (it reads blank) Is this some sort of joke to you? Is this some sort of joke to you? [Chorus] So excuse me if I break my own heart tonight Well, excuse me if I break my own heart tonight After all it was mine, after all it was mine After all it was mine Can I have it back sometime?
