pieces
Jared Porter Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

On a sea afternoon in August
I knew that this wish it
From that moment I first kiss you
I can still taste that sweet red cherry on my lips

So I don′t know why you through those roads these in my feet
And I feel those words
Still cut through me

Every time I give my heart out
You sending right back, you sending right back in pieces
Every time I give my love out
You sending right back, you sending right back in pieces

It was has spot with kiss her
You will never be the same
My heart still feels that fire
I'm not sure with this never pain no shape in you′re blame

This reason why I through those roads these in your feet
Even now we tried
Is hurting me

Every time I give my heart out
You sending right back, you sending right back in pieces
Every time I give my love out
You sending right back, you sending right back in pieces

Every time I give my heart out
You sending right back
You sending right back

Every time I give my heart out
Will coming right back
Will be coming right back from pieces

Every time I give my love out
Will coming right back
Will be coming right back from pieces
Will coming right back
Will coming right back from pieces

Will coming right back
Will coming right back from pieces
