A Little Piece of My Heart
Winfield Scott, Otis Blackwell
[Verse 1]
Every time you make me cry
Can't you see in my eyes
It tears away a little piece of my heart (Bit by bit)
[Verse 2]
Now when a pain is gone
And you do another wrong
It tears away another piece of my heart (Bit by bit)
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me darling, must we act like children
And play with love like, like some old toy
For what He gave us
We should feel tenderness toward one another
Happiness, understanding, love and joy
[Chorus]
Surely there must be a way
And somehow darling
Somehow we must find that way
For He would never forgive us
And we would never be blessed
With such a love again
[Verse 3]
All I want from life is you
But each day that we go through
You tear away a little piece of my heart (Bit by bit)
