A Little Piece of My Heart Lyrics

(Otis Blackwell - Winfield Scott)

Everytime you make me cry can't you see it in my eye
It tears away a little piece of my heart
Now when everything is gone and you do another wrong
It tears away another piece of my heart.

(Spoken)
Tell me darling must we act like children
And play with love like like some old toy
For what he gave us we should feel tenderness toward one another
Happiness understanding love and joy.

Surely there must be a way
And somehow darling somehow we must find that way
For he would never forgive us and we would never be blessed
With such a love again.

(Sang)
All I want from life is you but this way that we go through
You tear away a little piece of my heart...
