Lyrics
And all I remember is your back
Walking towards the airport, leaving us all in your past
I traveled 15 hundred miles, to see you
I begged you to want me, but you didn't want to
But piece by piece, he collected me
Up off the ground, where you abandoned things
Piece by piece, he filled the holes that you burned in me at
Six years old, and you know
He never walks away
He never asks for money
He takes care of me
He loves me
Piece by piece, he restores my faith
That a man can be kind and a father could stay
And all of your words fall flat
I made something of myself and now you wanna come back
But your love, it isn't free, it has to be earned
Back then I didn't have anything you needed, so I was worthless
But piece by piece, he collected me
Up off the ground, where you abandoned things
Piece by piece, he filled the holes that you burned in me at
Six years old, and you know
He never walks away
He never asks for money
He takes care of me
'Cause he loves me
Piece by piece, he restores my faith
That a man can be kind and a father could stay
Piece by piece
Piece by piece
I fell far from the tree
I will never leave her like you left me, and
She will never have to wonder her worth
Because unlike you, I'm gonna put her first
And you know
He'll never walk away
He'll never break her heart
He'll take care of things
He'll love her
Piece by piece
He'll restore my faith
That a man can be kind and a father should be great
Piece by piece
Piece by piece
