[Verse 1]
I've been waiting for the tides to change
For the waves to send you my way
I see you, darling, but you pixelate
It gets hard to take these days
[Pre-Chorus]
But we’ll hold the line, I won't let go
'Cause I’ll be there when you can finally make it home
And I don't mind
'Cause we both know
That we'll be fine when you can finally make it home
[Chorus]
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
You know when you're by my side, darling
Nothing can bring us down
[Verse 2]
I remembеr happy wasted days
Summer's golden hazе in our eyes
Lifting you above the breaking waves
Memories floating back to my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
You said hold the line, I won't let go
’Cause I’ll be there when you can finally make it home
And I don't mind
’Cause we both know
That we'll be fine when you can finally make it home
[Chorus]
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
You know when you're by my side, darling
Nothing can bring us down
It’s like when you're far away from me
I get lost in the crowd
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
[Bridge]
I won't waste a minute when you're here
And we're finally in the clear
When every day is like the last
I just keeping holding fast
[Chorus]
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
You know when you're by my side, darling
Nothing can bring us down
It's like when you're far away from me
I get lost in the crowd
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
Missing Piece was written by Vance Joy & Joel Little.
Missing Piece was produced by Edwin White & Joel Little.
Vance Joy released Missing Piece on Wed May 19 2021.
I wrote it with Joel Little on a zoom during lockdown. It’s about being separated from the one you love. It can be hard but you’re not too fazed because you’ll do what it takes to see each other again and this connection ain’t goin nowhere! I know so many people were (and still are) in that same boa...
I sat on this song for a year. I didn’t know what people would think of it. It’s definitely a confidence boost when it’s successful, but you never know what will connect with people or if they’re sick of a certain kind of sound you do. A lot of my songs may have a particular sound—‘Catalonia’ may so...
