The Thing That Wrecks You Tenille Townes & Bryan Adams

[Verse 1: Tenille Townes, Bryan Adams]
You're a passing car on a one-way street
Headed straight through the red lights where midnight and heartbreak meet
You're a photograph in a house of flames
Oh, you've played every card but you know it's a losing game

[Chorus: Tenille Townes & Bryan Adams]
We're running down a darker road
Where even angels fear to go
And stars fall like a lonely tear
When they're crashing through the atmosphere
It looked just like a dream come true
But love can lеad you straight into
The thing that wrecks you
The thing that wrеcks you

[Verse 2: Tenille Townes, Tenille Townes & Bryan Adams, Bryan Adams]
If I could change, I'd be good for you
Oh, I hate all the madness and the pain that I've put you through
It's not your fault (Oh, yes, it is)
It's just how I am (I know what you're like)
Oh, you're a deer in the headlights and I'm driving as fast as I can

[Chorus: Tenille Townes & Bryan Adams]
We're running down a darker road
Where even angels fear to go
Stars fall like a lonely tear
When they're crashing through the atmosphere
Yeah, it looked just like a dream come true
Oh, but love can lead you straight into
The thing that wrecks you
The thing that wrecks you
The thing that wrecks you
