Little pieces of my heart

I wonder if you loved me

And I wonder if you cared;

And I hope some nights you wake up

And you wish that I was there.

And I wonder if you realise

You still wander through my dreams;

And that each time when I wake up

You rip my heart out at the seams.

 

I wonder if your life worked out

And you found love like we had.

Did lightning strike a second time,

Or do our memories leave you sad?

And I wonder if you realise

How much I’ve loved you from the start,

And that every day you’re still breaking off

These little pieces of my heart.

 

And I hope you still remember,

As my life just fell apart,

How your eyes were filled with love

As you slowly broke my heart.

“We’ll be together. I just need some time.”

Were the final words you said,

And I wonder if you meant it

Or were you playing with my head?

 

And I wonder if our eyes should meet

Across a crowded street one day,

Would your face reflect the love we had

Or would you turn and walk away?

Still I dream our hearts would reconnect

Just like we’d never been apart,

And you’d stay and help me pick up all

These little pieces of my heart.
