Break So Easy

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Late in the summer, children run without clothes Chill of the winter not far down the road In the windows are silhouettes of husbands and wives Watching in silence 'til the evening arrives And there, all around, insects scream in the trees The promise of rain can be heard on the breeze [Chorus] Well, oh lord, oh lord We break so easily Well, oh lord, oh lord We shatter like glass [Bridge] Well, the headlights glow, the sky will soon be black The freeway riders are rolling, heading back They're heading back home [Verse 2] A dark-haired woman is driving the roads Breathing deeply, she don't mind bein' alone Well, I spend my nights in the reservoir Saying prayers for the passing cars
