Pickin' Up Pieces lyrics

(I'm) pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

pickin' up pieces of my heart.

(Ooh, yeah).

Pickin' up the pieces

of our fantasy,

pickin' up pieces of my heart (my heart).

I thought you believed in me

like I believed in you,

never did occur to me

that I was only playing the fool.

Now I want to (want to)

take my love back

and all those memories.

I need to (need to)

never look back.

Here's the way it's got to be, so I'm...

...pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

pickin' up pieces of my heart.

(Ooh, I'm) pickin' up the pieces

of our fantasy,

pickin' up pieces of my heart (my heart).

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).

Now as the shadows fall,

there's so much to do.

In the mirror on the wall,

you'll see the face from a crying fool.

I don't want to (want to)

ever look back

on all the memories.

I need to (need to)

never look back.

It's the only way I see, so I'm...

...pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

pickin' up pieces of my heart.

(Ooh, I'm) pickin' up the pieces

of our fantasy,

pickin' up pieces of my heart (my heart).  

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).

(Pickin' up, I'm pickin' up, pickin' up pieces).  

Pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

I'm pickin' up pieces of my heart.

(Ooh, yeah).

Pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

I'm pickin' up pieces of my heart.  

Pickin' up the pieces

of our fantasy,

pickin' up pieces of my heart.  

Pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

I'm pickin' up pieces of my heart.   

Pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

I'm pickin' up pieces of my heart.    

Pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

pickin' up pieces of my heart.    

Pickin' up the pieces

of our fantasy,

pickin' up pieces of my heart.  

Pickin' up the pieces

of our fantasy,

pickin' up pieces of my heart.  

Pickin' up the pieces

of our broken dream,

I'm pickin' up pieces of my heart.
