Bon Jovi - Every Word Was A Piece Of My Heart Lyrics

I've been staring at the page For what seems like days I guess I put this one off for a while Did I see a tear fall from your eyes Or did you laugh so hard that you cried When I served my secrets on a silver tray to you Hey now, I guess the night's just bringing me down

Chorus: There's no love, there's no hate I left them there for you to take But, know that every word was a piece of my heart

You've been the blood in my veins The only one who knows my middle name And the smiles they came easy 'cause of you You know that I love you, but I hate you 'Cause I know I can never escape you Let the choir sing for tonight I'm an easy mark Hey now, am I acting just a little too proud

Chorus

Have I said too much Maybe I haven't said enough But know that every word was a piece of my heart

Hush me darling, maybe I've lost my touch Maybe I've lost my guts - there, is that truth enough Hey now, Hey now

You know these love letters mix with whisky Just don't light a match when you kiss me Though I'll blow away, you know I'll be back soon Hey now, Hey now, Hey now, am I talking just a little too loud

Chorus

Have I said too much Maybe I haven't said enough But know that every word was a piece of my heart Hey now, am I talking just a little too proud Hey now, the night's just bringing me down
