You thought you'd blown out my candle
Cause I cried so much then
I just pretend
You only took a tiny little piece of my heart
I had to find a good reason
Just to crawl out of bed
Now I've fixed my head
You only took a tiny little piece of my heart

It's such a shame
The way you flatter yourself
Shoo fly, take your tiny little piece with you

Oh please your sorry excuses
Are a dollar for ten
So go tell your friends
That you only took a tiny little piece of my heart

It's such a shame
The way you flatter yourself
Shoo fly, take your tiny little piece with you

I wonder why
Why you had to take my loving
And leave me dry
Just turn your back and keep on running
Oh please your sorry excuses
Are a dollar for ten
So go tell your friends
That you only took a tiny little piece of my heart

It's such a shame
The way you flatter yourself
You only took a tiny little piece of my heart
A tiny little piece of my heart
A tiny little piece of my heart
A tiny little piece of it
