Break Up Song Lyrics by DeVotchKa

This Night Falls Forever

2018

When she wakes up
I’m gonna break up
With that girl of mine

She’s been spending all my money
All of my spare time

I’ve put up with a lot
But now she’s crossed the line

When she wakes up
I’m gonna break up
With that girl of mine

I’m gonna move out of the city
That don’t ever let me sleep
Like a hundred years of promises
That they don’t ever keep

I’m gonna go somewhere that’s pretty
Where a space to live is cheap
I’m gonna move out of the city
That don’t ever let me sleep

Sometimes all you need is a change of scenery
Exchange all the bar light for a little greenery
Wide open skies as far as the eye can see
Surely there's one slice of land for me

I’m going sell back all my suits and shave my pompadour
Spill my books and all my records out on the kitchen floor
I’m gonna send them all away and I don’t need em anymore
I’m going burn all my possessions on the kitchen floor

Sometimes all you need is a change of scenery
Exchange all the barren lands for a little greenery
Wide open skies as far as the eye can see
Surely there's one slice of land for me

When she wakes up
I’m gonna break up
With that girl of mine

She’s been wasting all my money
All of my spare time

I’ve put up with a lot
But now she’s crossed the line

Oh when she wakes up
I’m gonna break up
With that girl of mine

Oh when she wakes up
I’m gonna break up
With that girl of mine
