Bits And Pieces

From the soundtrack of "The Stunt Man"

Out of nowhere into sight

Out of darkness into light

You come running pushing time

Out of reason

Out of rhyme

Bits and pieces of your past

Cling like shadows to your heels

And your heart is learning fast

How it feels

With your secrets in your eyes

And your feelings in disguise

You come running in your fright

Seeking shelter from the night

And you search each passing face

For a sign someone could care

But they rush by in their race

To nowhere

And you watch and wonder where you belong

And the crowd, it moves and takes you along

And the colours splash and repaint your sky

And reality is yours to deny

And you look for someone your arms can hold

Who will let you tell what begs to be told

Then you ask yourself what good are your dreams?

In a world where nothing is what it seems

Bits and pieces of your past

Chill your soul like winter rain

But the time will come at last

When a love will ease your pain

If you let me I will try

If you let me I'll be near

If you let me when you cry

I will hear

Oh, oh and you watch and wonder where you belong

And the crowd, it moves and takes you along

And the colours splash and repaint your sky

And reality is yours to deny

And you look for someone your arms can hold

Who will let you tell what begs to be told

And you ask yourself what good are your dreams?

In a world where nothing is what it seems

And you watch and wonder where you belong

And the crowd, it moves and takes you along

And the colours splash and repaint your sky

And reality is yours to deny

And you look for someone that your arms can hold

Who will let you
