Built up on empty words I fell for what I thought we were And I crashed down, I fell apart Yeah I crashed down, scattered in the dark I left a part of myself in the places we'd find We were on our own cloud 9, we left the world spinnin behind In the back seat of a stranger's car, Laughing out loud in an uptight bar Thought we'd find who we are That's why moving on's so hard Why'd you have to love me to pieces? Whyd you have to be what I needed? Too many times in different places You held my heart enough to break it Why'd you have to love me to pieces? Love me to love me, la-ah-ah, love me Love me to love me to pieces Love me to love me, la-ah-ah, love me Love me to love me to pieces I can almost taste the view Over the city, were you wasted on me too? Had no doubt but no clue If all I dreamed about you were dreaming too I left a part of myself in the places we'd find We were on our own cloud 9, we left the world spinnin behind In the back seat of a stranger's car, Laughing out loud in an uptight bar Thought we'd find who we are That's why moving on's so hard Why'd you have to love me to pieces? Whyd you have to be what I needed? Too many times in different places You held my heart enough to break it Why'd you have to love me to pieces? Love me to love me, la-ah-ah, love me Love me to love me to pieces Love me to love me, la-ah-ah, love me Love me to love me to pieces Oh what I wouldn't do to go back Before we knew just how much we had to lose Could I stand in that moment with you? Ooh there's nothing I can say Second changes slipped away Running off to better days But can you tell me that you're okay? Why'd you have to love me? Why'd you have to love me? Too many times in different places You held my heart enough to break it Why'd you have to love me to pieces?
