Piece Of My Heart, lyric by John Lodge

from the songs album Natural Avenue

I can remember the
Words that you say
Seems like forever
Or was it today
The cold light of dawn broke in two
The one part of me
That was you
'cause you're the one that went
And stole a piece of my heart

High on our hillside
We both shared the view
Talking of people
We thought we knew
How could that dream fade away
And fall on the ground where we lay
'cause you're the one that
Went and stole a
Piece of my heart

Oh well, you must be
Twenty-three by now
Married with kids of your own
And the little boy
Is three
Does he look like me
It's a long way from freedom
It's a long way from home

I can remember
The words that you say
Seemed like forever
Was taken away
When time made its own point of view
On the promise
Two young people knew
'cause you're the
One that went and stole a piece of
My heart
'cause you're the
One that went and stole a piece of
My heart

'cause you're the one that went and
Stole a piece of my heart
(repeat and fade)
