Broken dreams and the shattering sound
As all the pieces scatter on the ground
I missed the hoop, on my hook shot loop
Now you'll get me on the rebound
Best laid plans of mice and men
I learned the hard way, what I should have know then
She didn't love me, she was no friend
It was a long shot, and I blew it in the end
Broken dreams and the shattering sound
As all the pieces scatter on the ground
I missed the hoop, on my hook shot loop
Now you'll get me on the rebound
The game is lost and I'll never be the same
And as I stand here dripping in the rain
My heart goes slipping down the drain
Then you'll come along to scoop me up again
Broken dreams and the shattering sound
As all the pieces scatter on the ground
I missed the hoop, on my hook shot loop
Now you'll get me on the rebound
