Every time you make me cry Can't you see in my eyes It tears away a little piece of my heart (Bit by bit) Now when a pain is gone And you do another wrong It tears away another piece of my heart (Bit by bit) Tell me darling, must we act like children And play with love like, like some old toy For what He gave us We should feel tenderness toward one another Happiness, understanding, love and joy Surely there must be a way And somehow darling Somehow we must find that way For He would never forgive us And we would never be blessed With such a love again All I want from life is you But each day that we go through You tear away a little piece of my heart (Bit by bit)
