(Difford/Tilbrook) 



Words escape me now I'm in prison  

Sentenced to a life of tears  

Now she hates me, that's her decision  

Waiting for the smoke to clear  

So I can see the damage of the fire  

That raged through our love  

So I can see the damage I can try  

And salvage our love  

I'm picking up the pieces  

Maybe they'll fit some day  



Love recalls me back from darkness  

It whispers to an eager ear  

She ignores me, why so heartless  

Waiting for the smoke to clear  

So she can see the damage of the fire  

That raged through our love  

So she can see the damage she can try  

And salvage our love  



Picking up the pieces  

And putting them down again  



There's never a match for a burning desire  

To fall in love  

And put out the fire that's been burning  



Picking up the pieces  

And putting them down again  

Picking up the pieces  

Maybe they'll fit someday
