Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
Stop in the name of love
Before you break, break, break, break—

I'm your day-one, baby but you're forgetting lately
And it's tearing us apart (Oh-oh)
You got a nasty habit, uh, of doing me damage
When all I wanna do is go back to the start

You're the dream that I've had for so long
(Before you break my heart)
You're the one who inspired all my love songs
(Before you break my heart)
And now you'rе trying to leave and
It's a crime to mе, call up the police
(Before you break, break, break, break—)
You keep hurting me, I'm begging you to

Stop in the name of love (Doo-doo-doo)
Before you break my heart (I'm begging you to)
Stop in the name of love (Doo-doo-doo)
Before you break my heart
I'm begging (Begging)
Think it over (Stop, stop, stop, stop)
Think it over (Before you break my heart)
(I'm begging you to)
Think it over (Stop, stop, stop, stop)
Think it over (Before you break my heart)
(Oh-oh)

Can we switch the station (Ooh) to the affirmations? (Ah)
Will you tell me that I'm worth your love?
Would you put me in the spotlight
On the main stage of your mind
so we can both shine? (Shine, shine)
Wish you could see me as your star
(Before you break my heart)

You're the dream that I've had for so long
(Before you break my heart)
You're the one who inspired all my love songs
(Before you break my heart)
And now you're trying to leave
It's a crime to me, call up the police
(Before you break, break, break, break—)
You keep hurting me, I'm begging you to

Stop in the name of love (Doo-doo-doo)
Before you break my heart (I'm begging you to stop)
Stop in the name of love (Doo-doo-doo)
Before you break my heart
I'm begging (Begging)
Think it over (Stop, stop, stop, stop)
Think it over (Think it over; Before you break my heart)
(I'm begging you to)
Think it over (Stop, stop, stop, stop)
Think it over (Before you break my heart)
(Mm-mm)

Stop in the name of love
Won't you stop in the name of love?
Won't you stop? 'Cause I've had enough (Yeah)
Baby, think it over (Just stop)
Stop in the name of love (Drop)
Won't you stop in the name of love? (Your love, your heart)
Won't you stop? 'Cause I've had enough, yeah
(Had enough; Before you break, break, break, break—)
Stop in the name of love
(Won't you stop in the name of love?)
(Won't you stop? 'Cause I've had enough)
Before you break my heart (Stop in the name of love)
In the name of love

Why don't you just stop? (Stop in the name of love)
Won't you stop? 'Cause I've had enough
Oh-oh (Before you break my heart)
I'm begging you to think it over (Stop, stop, stop)
Stop in the name of love
Before you break my heart
