Lyric Tearing Us Apart

by Eric Clapton and Greg Phillinganes

You know the sun is shining; it s raining in my heart.
I don t know what to do since we ve been apart.
Why don t you tell me, babe, what is going on?
You know I love you darling, don t want to be alone.

They re tearing us apart,
They re breaking up my heart.
I knew it from the start:
Your friends are tearing us apart.

You know I can t go on, feeling this old way.
You know my heart is burning, it s burning everyday.
You know I love you, baby, no one else will do.
Why don t you reconsider, do what I want you to?

Chorus

Chorus

Your friends are tearing us apart,
Tearing us apart.
