Lyrics to Piece Of My Heart
Lyrics to the song Piece Of My Heart as recorded by Bryan Ferry.
(Berns/Ragovoy)
Didn't I make you feel like you are the only one?
Didn't I give you everything that I possibly can?
But Lord, the love I give you it's never enough
But I'm gonna show you, baby, that I really can be tough
So come on, come on, come on, come on take it
Take another little piece of my heart now, baby
(break it) Break another little bit of my heart now, honey
(have a) Have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you've got it if makes you feel good
You're out on the street (looking good)
And you know deep down in your heart that it ain't right
You never, never hear me when I cry at night
I tell myself that I can't stand the pain
But when I hold you in my arms, I'll say it again
So come on, come on, come on, come on
Take it, take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Break it, break another little bit of my heart now, honey
You can have a, have another little piece of my heart now, baby
You know you've got it if makes you feel good
Take it, take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Break it, break another little piece of my heart now, honey
Have a, have another little piece of my heart now, baby
Take it, take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Break it, break another little bit of my heart now, honey
Have a, have another little piece of my heart now, baby
Take it, take another little piece of my heart now, baby
Break it, break another little piece of my heart now, honey
Have a, have another little piece of my heart now, baby
Take it, take another little piece of my heart now, baby
