Pieces of April - Dave Loggins

23 and still going still growing But why do I feel so weak? It's like I lost the parts of me that grew older At 13 All these distant pieces They are lost at sea And I think I know right where Cos the pieces of me that you stole I still seek ohh Yeah the pieces of me that I should have learned to love Yeah you stole them Yeah you told me That you own them The power in you is invested on me So the pieces of me I still seek Still up some nights thinking back to all those times I felt weak I get lost and I feel like I'm possessed by the devil in you that's now in me All these distant pieces they are lost at sea And I think I know right where Cos the pieces of me that you stole I still seek ohh Yeah the pieces of me that I should have learned to love Yeah you stole them Yeah you told me That your own them The power in you is invested on me So the pieces of me I still seek Those pieces of me I wanna know where you hide them Enjoy them right? Cos I I won't stay silent Cos I'm reaching out To the Pieces of me that you stole and I seek Yeah the pieces of me that I should have learned to love Yeah you stole them Yeah you told me That you own them The power in you is invested on me So the pieces of me I still seek Those pieces of me Those pieces belong to me

All the pieces of you fit perfectly in the hole inside my heart And I'd be lying if I tried telling you That you're not everything I want Yeah, I keep a picture of you in my pocket And last night, I almost lost it I used to think I should quit you But I'm so addicted, it hurts Remember the nights That we would stare at the lights by the train tracks And you would always listen to Dashboard That was the first time that I realized All the pieces of you fit perfectly in the hole inside my heart And I'd be lying if I tried telling you That you're not everything I want 'Cause I tried running away But I came right back today Just hoping that you'd let me say I'm sorry 'Cause all the pieces of you fit perfectly in the hole inside my heart Inside my heart I wasn't ready for this, looking in hindsight It's like bringing a knife to a gunfight And sometimes, I listen to your voicemails Need something to fill the void Remember the night we almost got in a fight in your driveway And you told me that you needed space That was the last time that I realized All the pieces of you fit perfectly in the hole inside my heart And I'd be lying if I tried telling you That you're not everything I want 'Cause I tried running away But I came right back today Just hoping that you'd let me say I'm sorry 'Cause all the pieces of you fit perfectly in the hole inside my heart Inside my heart (inside my, inside my, inside my heart) Remember the nights That we would stare at the lights by the train tracks And you would always listen to Dashboard That was the first time that I realized All the pieces of you fit perfectly in the hole inside my heart

It's hard to say our love had it's place But the time is over, It ran its course I can't let it go on knowing That you're relying on me When I'm relying on you As good as you are to me I'll be that far By the time you're crying This is goodbye Pieces of you Is what I'll hold on to When the times get tough When my luck runs dry Pieces of you Is what'll get me through When the times get tough When my luck runs dry I'm sorry that today is that day I'm sorry but it's better this way We fell in love, now we fall apart All alone you always amazed me But I, I Can't let it go on knowing That you're relying on me when I'm relying on you As good as you are to me I'll be that far By the time you're This is goodbye Pieces of you Is what I'll hold on to When the times get tough When my luck runs dry Pieces of you Is what'll get me through When the times get tough When my luck runs dry I'm sorry that today is that day I'm sorry but it's better this way I want you to know If it was meant to be Where we left off Is fine with me I'll miss everything Cherish the memories That one time You were mine As good as you are to me I'll be that far By the time you're crying This is goodbye Pieces of you Is what I'll hold on to When the times get tough When my luck runs dry Pieces is what'll get me through When the time get tough... I'll miss, I'll miss I will miss everything about you I will miss everything about you I will miss everything

Why are there so many songs about rainbows And what's on the other side? Rainbows are visions, but only illusions And rainbows have nothing to hide So we've been told and some choose to believe it I know they're wrong wait and see Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers and me Who said that every wish would be heard And answered when wished on the morning star? Somebody thought of that And someone believed it Look what it's done so far What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing? And what do we think we might see? Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers and me Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices? I've heard them calling my name Are these the sweet sounds that call the young sailors? I think they're one and the same I've heard it too many times to ignore it It's something that I'm supposed to be Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection The lovers, the dreamers and me

Love is real Real is love Love is feeling Feeling loved Love is wanting To be loved Love is touch Touch is love Love is reaching Reaching out Love is asking To be loved Love is you You and me Love is knowing You can be Oh Love is free Free is love All this living Living, living, love Love is needing To be loved Love is you You and me Love is wanting To be free Love is knowing We will be

Listen to the people crying Hoping for the day they'll be free I don't have to tell you we're (they're) dieing Just wake up, take a look, what do You see? I see young men my own age in coffins And mothers in tears for their sons* And sweethearts and wives Alone with their memories And golden ribbon's those fortunes of war Thousands and thousands Shall gather together To seek and find the Way we all need And the son will bring (backhanded glory) us together Hallelujah And rid ourselves of the pain we all see We see young men our own age in coffins And Mothers in tears for their sons And Sweetheart's and wives Alone with their memories And golden ribbon's those fortunes of war What does it to avail a man To gain fortune And lose his soul?

I was sitting at a table on an open bay Waiting for drink of rum When I asked my waiter for the time of day She said, "Look out there's a centipede coming your way" In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow In Lahaina, the living is slow In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet But the centipede he crawls all over your feet I was lying by the water in the morning sun Shaded by a coconut tree When I turned around it was all I could see There was great big centipede staring at me In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow In Lahaina, the living is slow In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet But the centipede he crawls all over your feet I had only just a second to decide what to do While looking at his poisonous fangs When I said I thought it was a beautiful day He said, "Wow Mr. Hall, I think you're pushing my leg" In Lahaina, the sugarcane grow In Lahaina, the living is slow In Lahaina, the mangoes are sweet But the centipede he crawls all over your feet
