(Harlan Howard & Hank Cochran)
I fall to pieces
Each time I see you again
I fall to pieces
How can I be just your friend.
You want me to act like we've never kissed
You want me to forget, pretend we've never met
And I've tried and I've tried but I haven't yet
You walk by and I fall to pieces.
--- Instrumental ---
I fall to pieces
Each time someone speaks your name
I fall to pieces
Time only adds to the flame.
You tell me to find someone else to love
Someone who'll love me too, the way you used to do
But each time I go out with somebody new
You walk by and I fall to pieces.
You walk by and I fall to pieces.
You walk by and I fall to pieces...
