Put Back the Pieces

Words and music ©1989, 2003 by Rob and Dave Caruso

I want what you want
But we seem to be going in circles
Why can't we just let it lie?
You say that you'll stay
But we seem to be getting nowhere
Or at our best, getting by

I see a tear in your eye___
I wanna know

Why do you sleep alone
When we could just put back the pieces?
It's not too late, oh no
If we could just put back the pieces

Time slows, love goes
And God knows we're trying to make it
I need you here by my side
I want what you want
But we seem to be going in circles
Why can't we just let it ride

I need you here by my side___
I'm beggin' you--

Don't walk away, oh no
When we could just put back the pieces
I'm telling you
It's not too late, oh no
If we could just put back the pieces

If we could just put back the peace between us
Maybe then the rest would fall in place
I wanna know, I wanna know--

[Solo]

Don't walk away, oh no
When we could just put back the pieces
I'm telling you
It's not too late, oh no
If we could just put back the pieces
