Pick Up The Pieces Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey boy, we're drifting apart
We keep breaking each other's hearts
But how long, can things go on
Before all our love is gone

[Chorus]
Can we pick up the pieces baby
Can we pick up the pieces
And start all over
Start all over
I don't wanna lose you baby

[Verse 2]
We keep acting, like little children
Playing games that's so unfair
We keep stepping on each other's feelings
When deep down, deep down we really, really care

[Chorus]
Got to, got to pick up the pieces baby
We got to, got to pick up the pieces now
And start all over
Start all over

[Bridge]
I know we can make it
This time we can go all the way
'Cause I realize the cost of losing you
Is too high a price, oh, for me to pay
Oh baby baby baby
I just can't stand to lose you now

[Verse 1]
Hey boy, we're drifting apart
We keep breaking each other's hearts
But how long, can things go on
Before all our love is gone

[Outro]
Got to, got to pick up the pieces baby
We got to, got to pick up the pieces ooh ooh
Got to get together, darling
'Cause I need you right, here by my side
Oh, come on back
Baby, come on back
Oh ooh wee
Got to get the pieces together now...
