Brandon Ratcliff - Rules of Breaking Up

Copied!

Can't go out and not be seen
Cause you gotta give her space, uh huh
Can’t go back to being friends
It don't work that way, uh huh
You can't call her up
Tell her everything you’re thinking
Can't show up at her place
Every time you're drinking
You can't keep hoping that
She might be coming back

Whoever wrote the rules of breaking up
Never kissed your lips
Touched your skin, held the world at their fingertips
Didn't have a clue what heaven was
No they didn't have to lose that kind of love
And if they ever saw that smile
Ever felt your fire
They might know what I'm going through
Whoever wrote the rules of breaking up
Never been broke up, broke up over you

I guess I'm supposed to go right out
And try to meet somebody new, mm mm
Is she going to be as confident
Intelligent and as cool as hell as you? No no, no no
I know he said that in the end it’s probably for the best
But I gotta get this off my chest

Whoever wrote the rules of breaking up
Never kissed your lips
Touched your skin, held the world at their fingertips
Didn’t have a clue what heaven was
No they didn't have to lose that kind of love
And if they ever saw that smile
Ever felt your fire
They might know what I’m going through
Whoever wrote the rules of breaking up
Never been broke up, broke up over you

They say that you need time apart
But I can't stop hoping
Hoping that the rules are just like hearts
And they can be broken

Whoever wrote the rules of breaking up
Never kissed your lips
Touched your skin, held the world at their fingertips
Didn't have a clue what heaven was
No they didn't have to lose that kind of love
And if they ever saw that smile
Ever felt your fire
They might know what I’m going through
(what I'm going through)
Whoever wrote the rules of breaking up
Never been broke up (broke up)
Broke up over you
(Broke up, broke up, broke up)
They never been broke up (broke up, broke up)
Whoever wrote the rules of breaking up

Biography

edit bio

Brandon Ratcliff is a 24 year old singer-songwriter and artist from Cotton Valley, Louisiana. Son of Suzanne Cox of the legendary Cox Family, he was surrounded by music and began to hone his craft from a very young age. His talents quickly attracted the music business machine in Nashville, but at the age of 20, he decided to turn down a publishing deal and work on his craft….he would not take the quick and easy route. In the process of finding great co-writing partners, he befriended Pete Good (producer and co-writer) and AJ Babcock (co-writer) who would go on to become his closest friends outside of the studio. Together, they honed Ratcliff’s musical talent drawing from country, R&B and classic rock to Ratcliff’s personal inspirations such as Stevie Wonder and John Mayer. Eventually, Grammy-award winning producer Shane McAnally teamed up with them, and the result is a bold, fresh look at the seasons of relationships delivered by an artist with a clear point of view and a distinctive sound.
