Verse 1 Grandma's kitchen, fresh and warm Cookies cooling on the tray I picked the roundest one I saw And ran outside to play Under the tree, that's my spot That's where I always go But somewhere halfway through the yard I tripped and watched it go Verse 2 Snap — it broke in two right there Lying in the grass I thought it was the saddest thing I thought the moment passed Then a little sparrow came Hopping near my feet I gave a crumb, it took the bite And flew off down the street Chorus Sometimes broken isn't bad Sometimes it's just the start A little crack can let the light Right into your heart Half for me and half for you That's how it's meant to be The cookie broke but something grew Sweeter than before, you'll see Verse 3 My brother came and smelled the air "What's that amazing smell?" I looked down at the pieces there And knew just what to tell "Here — a half is yours today" We sat beneath the tree Crumbs and laughter, sparrows too It tasted like victory Chorus Sometimes broken isn't bad Sometimes it's just the start A little crack can let the light Right into your heart Half for me and half for you That's how it's meant to be The cookie broke but something grew Sweeter than before, you'll see Bridge Funny how the things that break Can turn into something more A little crumb, a little share Opens up a door Outro Half for you… Half for me… Sweeter than before…
