[Verse 1]
         
And all she re

           
members is you

   
r back

Walking toward

s the airport
         
Leaving them a

[Pre Chorus]
             
She traveled f

             
ifteen hundred

           
 miles to see 

   
you
            
She begged you

         
 to want her
              
But you didn't

 
 want to


[Chorus]

Then she told you
 
Piece by piece

, he collected

 me,
    
Up off the gro

und where you 

abandon things
    
And piece by p

iece, he fille

d the holes
         
That you burne

d in me at six

 years old

And, he never 

walks away

He never asks for money

He takes care 

of me

Cause he loves me

Piece by piece

, he restores 

my faith
         
That a man can

              
 be kind and a

         
 father can st

ay,


[Verse 2]
           
And all of you

And now you wa

But your love

ned
            
Back then she
