American Love

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You see I've got this American love A brand new planet in the solar system I'll kiss your neck But I just can't look her in the eye You leave for college At the turn of autumn I spent the winter Diving to the bottom I'll kiss your neck But I just can't look you in the eye, yeah [Chorus] Big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking (Big hearts are for breaking) Big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking, yeah [Verse 2] You see I've got this critical conscience A brand new black hole in the solar system I'll dig my grave but I just can't stand to step inside And when they find out (When they find out) They'll sound every siren Break the door down To find a baby crying You thought I knew it's just not right to tell a lie, yeah [Chorus] Big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking (Big hearts are for breaking) Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh, big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking, yeah [Bridge] Now there's no turning back In the face of the sweat we shared There's nowhere to run We are so unprepared It's a new heart attack Brand new bricks on my back to bear But don't say a word or they might find us there [Verse 3] You see I've got this American love A hidden planet in the solar system But keep your eyes shut I just can't stand to say goodbye [Chorus] Big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking (Big hearts are for breaking) Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh, big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking, yeah (Big hearts are for breaking) Yeah, big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking (Big hearts are for breaking) Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh, big hearts, big hearts Big hearts are for breaking, yeah [Outro] Yeah, yeah (Big hearts are for breaking) Uh-uh-uh, oh-oh-oh (Big hearts are for breaking)
