Lyrics Paloma Faith – Picking Up The Pieces
Text:
Do you think of her
When you’re with me?
Repeat the memories you made together
Whose face do you see?
Am I too loud?
I play the clown
To cover up all these doubts
Perfect heart
She’s flawless
She’s the other woman
Shining in her splendor
You were lost
But now she’s gone
And I’m picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you don’t see that I’m the one by your side
‘Cause she’s gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
‘Cause all that’s left is you and I
And I’m picking up the pieces she left behind
I found a photograph behind the TV
You looked so happy are you missing the way it used to be?
And I have changed this room around more often lately
It’s clear that we
And these four walls
Still know it’s hers and yours.
Perfect heart
She’s flawless
She’s the other woman
You were lost
But now she’s gone
And I’m picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you don’t see that I’m the one by your side
‘Cause she’s gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
‘Cause all that’s left is you and I
And I’m picking up the pieces she left behind
Are we liars in denial?
Are we smoke without the fire?
Tell me please is this worth it?
I deserve it
‘Cause she’s gone
And I’m picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you don’t see that I’m the one by your side
‘Cause she’s gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
‘Cause all that’s left is you and I
And I’m picking up the pieces
She left behind
