	Story Behind the Song I wrote the song sitting on a dock along the water in Belgrade lakes Maine. I remember it being night time, and I was at a party and got inspired to write the song. My girlfriend couldn't come up that weekend, and I wanted to write her a love song. Earlier that day, I was in a boat with my friend Adam, and we were heading towards town and we ran out of gas. We of course did not have cell phones and we started waving down this boat that came to us going one mile an hour. When they finally got there, they towed us to town and to thank them for saving us we did what any good sealubbers would do, and bought them a six pack of beer. So I came up for the idea of this song that day. I think I read the saying "love breaks all the rules" in a book of poems for a college poetry book and remembered really liking it. This was Jason Gardner's favorite song on the album, and he did really cool backup vocals when we recorded it. Goody used his mandostrat, this little Fender electric mandolin/guitar which he paired with a volume pedal and delay and he got some really cool sounds. Lyrics I feel my ship come inside your shores We've never come this close before Life's never been so beautiful you know How much longer will I have to wait Feel an open door close upon our fate We rise so high to fall in love so low Do you feel love come inside your shores? Or hearts torn out thrown on the floor? I gave my all and you showed me the door Wherever you will go, whatever you will go through It breaks my heart to tell you Well, Love breaks all the rules Will I follow my foolish pride Or find familiar love in a stranger's eyes? This place is old once seemed so new to me The wind has blown the matches of names That lit the spark of our old flames These burning out and fading memories Do you feel love's sparks light these shores? Or hearts torn out thrown on the floor? You gave your all and I showed you the door Wherever you will go, whatever you will go through It breaks my heart to tell you Well, Love breaks all the rules Well you've been so good to me Never had someone so kind And I know that somethings built to last Withstand the test of time I see ten thousand million falling in and out Coming down from heavens gates I see thousands more floating towards the shores Where I patiently wait Do you feel love's sparks light these shores? Or hearts torn out thrown on the floor? I'll give my all, if you'll show me the door Wherever you will go, whatever you will go through It breaks my heart to tell you Well, Love breaks all the rules Whatever you will know Whatever you once thought that you knew It breaks my heart to tell you Well, Love breaks all the rules
