Breakin' in a brand new broken
Francis Connie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Here at home is where I'll be
There's no one I care to see,
I'm breaking in a brand new broken heart
Now the heartaches have begun,
There's a job that must be done
I have no time for havin' fun,
I'm breaking in a brand new broken heart
There are tears that must be cried
Till there's no more tears inside
Let me take the count of ten,
Then I'll bounce right back again
Let me be alone till then,
I'm breaking in a brand new broken heart
I'm breaking in a brand new broken heart
The lyrics to Francis Connie's song "Breakin' in a brand new broken heart" express the pain and difficulty associated with heartbreak.

The heart has been broken before, but now it's brand new because it's broken in a different way that requires a different type of healing.

I love this song...
But where is that place I called "home" in the sad times?
It is my motorcycle saddle.
When I ride outside my comfort zone and people ask
What brings you here?
I always answer...
"I am breaking in a brand-new broken heart"
Thanks, for the song, Connie.
Thanks, for the rides Harley.

I was 14 years in 1961, when I heard this song for the very first time!
And now, 2017, the 1st of August, still one of her best recordings!
The best female voice EVER!!
God bless you, dear!

I was born in 1961
My Mother and sister brought me up singing Connie! She was the rage in my toddler years. Where the boys are was always humming from my lips! 🙂

She has not a voice. She has a careless, a kiss for the ears. Marvellous. The best and sweetest feminine voice.
Jorge Mario Rodas
Connie is a very gifted singer and she was beautiful too. Her voice is something special and she sang with such feeling and depth I really enjoy hearing her songs.
Bill Moss
Seems to be an under-rated record, but the modulations in her voice are fantastic.
Milton Moore
No recording artist could possibly live
long enough to record as many immortal songs about romantic heart-
break as Connie Francis. She shall be
forever ensconced as
the "Queen of Heartbreak."
Markku Olavi
I do agree with all my heart!
Elvis Lass
Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!
Joe Davis
... Nobody sang as beautifully as Connie Francis

She was absolutely gorgeous when she was younger and what a voice. Connie, Patsy
Cline and Brenda Lee are my 3 favorite female singers of the past 60 years
