Pieces by Rebecca Martin Lyrics
At long last he came to me
But in pieces
Held only together
By the skin and the bones
And the strongest will I’ve ever known
And the fear of floating
Take him fast today
So it’s over before he knows
So it’s over before he knows
Close your eyes and remember
The young boy wading
At the bend in the river
And with your soul on a string
Cast it to the warm wind
This moment means everything
You’re forgiven
Now go
But in pieces
Held only together
By the skin and the bones
And the strongest will I’ve ever known
And the fear of floating
Take him fast today
So it’s over before he knows
So it’s over before he knows
Close your eyes and remember
The young boy wading
At the bend in the river
And with your soul on a string
Cast it to the warm wind
This moment means everything
You’re forgiven
Now go
