Little Piece
Echoes of a Wanderer: Bradley James Hayes' Captivating Tale
Lyrics
There's a little piece of you
Refers to possessing a part of the person addressed.
I made sure to take before I went away
Expresses the singer's intention to take a part of the person before leaving.
You'll be calling trying to get it back someday
Suggests the person will regret losing the taken part and try to reclaim it in the future.
You won't even realize it's gone
Indicates the person may not immediately notice the missing part.
Until you're ready to admit you're wrong and say sorry
Implies that realization will come when the person admits fault and apologizes.
But baby we both know you ain't that brave
States the person lacks the courage to admit wrongdoing and apologize.
Don't worry I'll keep it safe
Assures the safety of the taken part despite broken promises.
From all the promises you made me break
Refers to promises made and broken in the relationship.
I took your heart out on the road with me
Expresses taking the person's heart on a journey.
So I won't miss you while you're oh so wild and free
Indicates the desire not to miss the person while they are enjoying freedom.
No I won't ever be lonely
States confidence in not feeling lonely.
Now every night you're singing harmony
Describes the person singing in harmony every night.
We're a regular Jones and Tammy baby
Compares the relationship to famous country singers Jones and Tammy.
No I won't ever be lonely
Reiterates the confidence in not feeling lonely.
Long as I got
Emphasizes the importance of having a part of the person with the singer.
Long as I got
-A little piece of you with me
-There's a little piece if you
Repeats the theme of having a part of the person and feeling confident in not being lonely.
Didn't know that she could sing the blues
-Down in Baton Rouge making all the old men cry
-You danced in tables without no shoes
-I said get down you told me
-You can't tell me what to do
-And I melted in love with you
-If I let this memory shine
-It doesn't feel like wasted time
-I took your heart out on the road with me
-So I won't miss you while you're oh so wild and free
-No I won't ever be lonely
-Now every night you're singing harmony
-We're a regular Jones and Tammy baby
-No I won't ever be lonely
-Long as I got
-Long as I got
-A little piece of you with me
-There's a little piece of you
Continues the theme of possessing a part of the person and finding solace in it.
The part you thought that you would never use
-But baby here's the truth ever since you left that day
-Moving on I'll be fine
-But your heart belongs next to mine
-I took your heart out on the road with me
-So I won't miss you while you're oh so wild and free
-No I won't ever be lonely
-Now every night you're singing harmony
-We're a regular Jones and Tammy baby
-No I won't ever be lonely
-Long as I got
-Long as I got
-A little piece of you with me
