Hey If we can solve any problem Then why do we lose so many tears? Oh, so you go again When the leading man appears

Always the same thing Can’t you see We’ve got everything Going on and on and on

Every time you go away You take a piece of me with you Every time you go away You take a piece of me with you, ooh

Go on and go free, yeah Maybe you’re too close to see I can feel your body move Doesn’t mean that much to me

I can’t go on Saying the same thing ‘Cause can’t you see? We got everything Baby, even though you know

Every time you go away, yeah You take a piece of me with you, oh Every time you go away You take a piece of me with you, ooh

Oh

I can’t go on Saying the same thing ‘Cause, baby, can’t you see? We got everything Going on and on and on

Every time you go away You take a piece of me with you Every time you go away You take a piece of me with you

Picking up the pieces Every time you go away (ooh) You take a piece of me with you (be careful) Every time you go away (every time you go) You take a piece of me with you You take a piece of me Every time you go away (oh) You take a piece of me with you (every time you go)
