If you say that it's true

But you don't know what to do

And it's only because you love me

If you tell me that you're sure

And it can't wait anymore

And it's only because you love me

[Chorus: Matt Berninger & Rosanne Cash]

I, I'm gonna crumble

I, I'm gonna crumble

If you say it like that, I'll die

If you say it like that, I'll probably cry

If you say it like that and don't wanna take it back

I'm gonna crumble

[Verse 2: Matt Berninger]

You say, "Don't misread your words

Sometimes, they're gonna hurt"

And it's only because you love me

If you say you're well aware

Of that, but you don't care

And it's only because you love me

[Chorus: Matt Berninger & Rosanne Cash]

I, I'm gonna crumble

I, I'm gonna crumble

If you say it like that, I'll diе

If you say it like that, I'll probably cry

If you say it like that and don't wanna take it back

I'm gonna crumblе

[Bridge: Rosanne Cash]

Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me

Get yourself ready to pick me up

Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me

Get yourself ready to pick me up

[Verse 3: Matt Berninger]

If you say it without intention

You just thought that you should mention

And it's only because you love me

And you want to see me soon

Under less a children's moon

And it's only because you love me

[Chorus: Matt Berninger & Rosanne Cash]

I, I'm gonna crumble

I, I'm gonna crumble

If you say it like that, I'll die

If you say it like that, I'll probably cry

If you say it like that and don't wanna take it back

I'm gonna crumble

[Outro: Matt Berninger & Rosanne Cash]

Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me

Get yourself ready to pick me up

Get yourself ready to catch what you can of me

Get yourself ready to pick me up
