Lyrics
Pickin' up the pieces of my life
Bringing new releases just in time
Just when I've exhausted
All the ways to bring it all together
He's pickin' up the pieces of my life
What is this desire, it seems we always have
We want to do things our own way
But when it comes to our human failures
We can't admit we were wrong
He's pickin' up the pieces of our lives
Chorus
I'm lookin' back on my yesterdays
My life was scattered in so many ways
And I tried so very, very, very hard
To fit the puzzle into place
But I see your loving arms
They are reaching out to me
He's right there
Pickin' up the pieces of my life
Pickin' up the pieces, bringing new releases
Pickin' up the pieces, bringing new releases
He’s right there
Pickin’ up the pieces of my life
Bringing new releases just in time
Just when I’ve exhausted
All the ways to bring it all together
He’s pickin’ up the pieces of my life
Pickin’ up the pieces of my life
