Clean Break

I think you need some assistance
To keep yourself at a distance
It's harder when she's beautiful
It's easy when she's waking next to you

If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break
If you're gonna make a break, break clean
If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break
If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break

I can see the tables turning
Homefires lit, your house is burning
It's harder in the evening but
It's easy in the early afternoon

If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break
If you're gonna make a break, break clean
If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break
If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break

Sure there is an easy out by staying in
For one more session
You justify it all by seeing her in moderation
No opportunity for her to start a new relation
You help yourself because you're sensing
Obligation

I think it's great the way you handle
Both ends of a burning candle
It's harder when she's easy but it's easy
When she's just as hard on you

If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break
If you're gonna make a break, break clean
If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break
If you're gonna make a break, make a clean break
