Piece by Piece                                    

First of all must go,

Your scent upon my pillow,

And then I’ll say goodbye

To your whispers in my dreams.

And then our lips will part,

In my mind and in my heart,

Because your kiss

Went deeper than my skin.

Piece by piece,

Is how I’ll let go of you.

Kiss by kiss,

Will leave my mind one at a time.

One at a time.

First of all must fly,

My dreams of you and I,

There’s no point of holding on to those.

And then our ties will break,

For your and my own sake,

Just remember,

This is what you chose.

Piece by piece,

Is how I’ll let go of you.

Kiss by kiss,

Will leave my mind one at a time.

One at a time.

I’ll shed like skin,

Our memories of lazy days,

And fade away the shadow

Of your face.

Piece by piece,

Is how I’ll let go of you.

Kiss by kiss,

Will leave my mind one at a time.

One at a time.

One at a time.

One at a time.
