lyrics

Torn in pieces again
Gotta find me some glue
And I knew this would happen one day
But I didn’t think I’d have you

Oh when he plays the violin
He wonders if it’s worth it
When I play my violin
I wonder am I worth it?

Why won’t you show me your pain?
Don’t you know I’m lonely?
Well I didn’t think you could bear it – oh dear
But if you want to see I’ll show you

Well I’m afraid that I can’t do this
And I wonder if I’ll see tomorrow
And I’m afraid that one day you’ll leave me
And I wonder if I’d blame you

But she took my hand and she held me
Oh she took my hand and she held me
She looked me right in my tearful eyes
And she told me that she loved me
She told me that she loved me
And she was staying right here

So when I’ve been torn in pieces again
I know just where to go
She’s direct, but she’s gentle
And I know it may sound simple
But she’s how I hope one day to be

So when I play my violin
I don’t wonder if I’m worth it
Oh no I play my violin
Cuz I know now that I’m worth it
