From the recording Carousel
Lyrics
A Piece of you
Summer’s gone and the wind picks up,
While the trees say goodbye to their young
Young leaves blow in the breeze you know,
‘til the angels pick them up
They pick them up, collect them..
Like I collected you
And of you, I missed a piece,
I must have missed a piece or two
Footprints now in the snow outside,
It’s a faded path of one
One more night with a cloudless sky
And you know I’m gonna run
And so I run, looking for
I’m looking for the truth
And in the truth, it remains,
A single piece of you
(Bridge)
Oh the cost of letting go
I hope reveals what I need to know
I’ve been moving fast, I‘ve been living hard
I’ve been fevered in my sleep you know
you know the calling sign, It’s your restless heart
And your memory just won’t stop
It won’t stop so I give in, I give in and I choose
I choose to keep, just a piece, a single piece of you.
And the morning light shines through,
a piece of beach glass blue..
reminds me of the sky’s in your eyes, in your eyes
