(the best part of) breakin' up

Singer:ronettes, the

baby when we break up from a quarrel or a fight

i can't wait to have you back and hold you

oh

so tight

tell me why

i wanna know

tell me why

is it so

that the best part of breaking up is when you're making up

best part of breaking up is when you're making up

but after breaking up be sure you're making up with me

everytime you leave i get those teardrops in my eyes

but they seem to go away when you apologize

tell me why

i want to know

tell me why

is it so

that the best part of breaking up is when you're making up

best part of breaking up is when you're making up

but after breaking up be sure you're making up with me

come on baby

come on baby

don't say maybe

well it makes no difference who was wrong

just as long as i'll be with you

baby i'll be lonely till you're back where you should be

'cause baby i belong to you and you belong to me

tell me why

i want to know

tell me why

is it so

that the best part of breaking up is when you're making up

best part of breaking up is when you're making up

but after breaking up

be sure you're making up with me

the best part of breaking up is when you know that you're making up with me

come on baby

come on baby

don't say maybe

come on baby

woo wee baby

come on baby
