Piece Of My Heart
Woman To Woman Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You changed me
You chained me down and taught me
The damage I've done
(Damage I've done)
Can show me the way to my heart?

Sing, sing out my love
'Cause I've been here before
And silence don't get you a thing
(No, it don't get you a thing)
I learned this on the way to my heart

It was with you Rivington deep
September we took the long way
And your hand led me home like Orion
You woke my heart with your northern lights
With your song

Yes you, you slay me origami dog
I wonder if you'll do it again
(Please do it again)




I'll thank you from the deep of my heart
I'll thank you for the start of my heart

The chorus emphasizes the importance of communication and openness in a relationship, as silence "don't get you a thing." The singer has learned this lesson on their own journey towards self-discovery, and seeks to share their newfound understanding of love and life with their partner. The second verse describes a specific memory with this person, where they walked together in Rivington Deep during September and the singer was led home "like Orion." The use of celestial imagery suggests a deep connection and a romanticism that transcends the earthly realm. The northern lights and the shared love of music further solidify this bond.


The final line of the song - "I'll thank you for the start of my heart" - encapsulates the entire message of the lyrics. Through this relationship, the singer has discovered a new aspect of themselves and their emotional capacity. They are grateful for their partner's role in this awakening, and look forward to what lies ahead for their love and their own personal growth.
