As I sit all alone in my lair, I start to see clear, mmm, about how it all began...
I admit that I might be at fault, the one to blame for it all;
You were so innocent...

I lured you in slowly, by bits and pieces;
I never thought you'd win all of me, just bits and pieces...

We went through a phase, we grew better by the day
But things got out of hand...
And maybe, you'd still be my lady if I'd not been so hasty
And took an axe to our well-made plans...

We fell apart, slowly, by bits and pieces
And it left my heart totally in bits and pieces...
I lured you in, slowly, by bits and pieces
Never thinking you would win all of me, just bits and pieces...

Now I must find someone new;
Won't be love, but it will do...

It eased the pain, slowly, by bits and pieces;
You'll never be replaced, not totally, just a few bits and pieces...
They'll come look for you, slowly gathering the clues, by bits and pieces
But they'll never find you, not totally, just a few scattered bits and pieces...
