BROKEN DOWN IN TINY PIECES
(Adrian)
Billy "Crash" Craddock - 1976
Buddy Emmons & Buddy Spicher - 1977


Broken down in tiny pieces 
Love Ain’t really all that much.
Just a song you used to whisper 
Or a smile I tried to touch

Broken down in tiny pieces 
Love ain’t hardly worth the time 
Just a nickel that I borrowed 
For a dream that cost a dime

 Take me back to where I started
You can help me mend 
Here I am in tiny pieces
Please put me back together again

Broken down in tiny pieces 
Love’s a special kind of thing
A snowball in December
You remember in the spring

And you were all that I remember
Of the thing I tried to find
In between the broken pieces
You  keep running through my mind

Can’t you see I’ll always love you 
It won’t ever end 
Here I am In tiny pieces 
Please put me back together again

The first verse is spoken by a woman 
starting after the first line of the fourth verse
and ending just before the last line of that verse.
