Missing Piece

Wouldn’t it be good if we could go back
To the start and know that we had
Something precious in our hands
Keep it safe and make it last
Thought we knew all about love
More like nothing, yeah I doubt that
Many get it right first time
I think about the words you wrote
How you are better off alone
You said you’ve got it figured out
You’re sorry that you let me down
I try to get back on my feet
But every single time I do
I can’t get my heart to beat straight
Because a part has been removed
How can I put me back together
How can I fix this open wound
When the only missing piece of me
The only missing piece of me is you
I think all about the places where
We kissed just like the station
Must have been there like a thousand times
But that’s where we would say goodnight
And you’d tell me your secrets
And you know I’ll always keep them
Even though you’ll find somebody new
I think about the words you wrote
How you are better off alone
You said you’ve got it figured out
You’re sorry that you let me down
I try to get back on my feet
But every single time I do
I can’t get my heart to beat straight
Because a part has been removed
How can I put me back together
How can I fix this open wound
When the only missing piece of me
The only missing piece of me is you
I know I can’t make it right
And we really are out of time
No need to apologise
But please let me say goodbye
I try to get back on my feet
But every single time I do
I can’t get my heart to beat straight
Because a part has been removed
How can I put me back together
How can I fix this open wound
When the only missing piece of me
The only missing piece of me is you
