Lyrics
Piece of Me
It's dark today.
You have got a lot to say.
If I could make it right,
You know I would stay up all night.
I'd like to tell you why,
But I don't know and I cry,
And I am so in love with you
I thought that we might try.
And every time you go...
Well, don't you know it's with you that I'd like to stay?
And every time you push me away I pray like today
That you take a piece of me.
My peace does not come easily
'Cause you're a piece of me.
You are a piece of me.
You know you're beautiful.
Yeah, sometimes you fill me up.
But, I shouldn't have to get in to be loved.
And every time you go...
Well, don't know you that part of me is dyin'?
And every time you leave...
Well, don't you believe I'm tryin'?
'Cause you take a piece of me.
And my peace does not come easily
'Cause you're a piece of me.
You are a piece of me.
And every time you go...
Well, don't know you that part of me is dyin'?
And every time you leave...
Well, don't you believe I'm tryin'?
'Cause you take a piece of me.
And my peace does not come easily
'Cause you're a piece of me.
You are a piece of me.
'Cause you take a piece of me.
And my peace does not come easily
'Cause you're a piece of me.
You are a piece of me.
You are a piece of me.
Oh, can't you see?
You are a piece of me.
Oh, can't you see?
You are a piece of me.
Oh, can't you see?
You are a piece of me.
