Picking Up The Pieces (Acoustic Version)

Paloma Faith - Picking Up the Pieces



Do you think of her
When youre with me?
Repeat the memories you made together
Whose face do you see?
Do you wish I was a bit more like her?
Am I too loud?
I play the clown
To cover up all these doubts

Perfect heart
Shes flawless
Shes the other woman
Shining in her splendor
You were lost

Now shes gone
And Im picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you dont see that Im the one by your side
Cause shes gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
Cause all thats left is you and I
And Im picking up the pieces she left behind

I found a photograph behind the TV
You look so happy are you missing the way it used to be?
And Ive changed this room around more often lately
Its clear that me and these 4 walls
Still know its puzzle and glow.

Perfect heart
Shes flawless
Shes the other woman
Shining in her splendor
You were lost

Now shes gone
And Im picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you dont see that Im the one by your side
Cause shes gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
Cause all thats left is you and I
And Im 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 shes gone
And Im picking up the pieces
I watch you cry
But you dont see that Im the one by your side
Cause shes gone
In her shadow is it me you see?
Cause all thats left is you and I
And Im picking up the pieces she left behind
