Every time you make me cry
Can't you see in my eyes
It tears away a little
Piece of my heart
Bit by bit?
Now when a pain is gone
And you do another wrong
It tears away another
Piece of my heart
Bit by bit
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
All I want from life is you
But each day that we go through
You tear away a little
Piece of my heart
Bit by bit
