You were born to break
You were born to break
You were born to break my heart

The same kitchen, the same eyes
The same reaction to the same lies
It was not so long ago
A most auspicious start
And only now I know
You were born to break my heart
You were born to break my heart

Guilt Trip, I can hear you say
Get a grip girl, you’ve lost your way
You don’t begin to understand
I guess it’s time we part
And don't be using that old cliche
You were born to break my heart
You were born to break my heart

No wonder we looked like the perfect couple
It was brilliantly conceived
It seems I have a yen to lose
And you can’t pass up the perfect
Chance to leave
The perfect chance to leave

The same plot, the same pain
I'm still standing here in the same rain
Just as stubborn as a fool
You’d think I might get smart
But here I am, cursed to seek love again
From yet another cold heart

You were born to break my heart
You were born to break my heart
Break my heart

And if I'd seen it coming
I would have said you were right on time
Even if I hadn't been so blind
