Pick Up The Pieces Lyrics by Jean Knight

Stax Singles 4: Rarities & The Best Of The Rest

0

Oh yeah
Cryin' won't help you
When your baby's gone, no it won't
This is what to do
When you're starved and you alone, now, oh yeah

Forget about what could
Yeah, what could have been
That's what you do, now
Just pick up the pieces and start over again, yeah

You can feel me now, yes you can
The second time around, oh
Just don't give up thinkin'
True love can't be found

Forget about what could
Yeah, what could have been
That's what you do, now
Just pick up the pieces and start over again

Broken hearts many times
Yes, will make it, just keep on tryin'
The game of love, [Incomprehensible]
It's the same everyday and everywhere

Cryin' won't help you now
When you're baby's gone, no it won't
This is what to do
When you're starved and you're lonely, oh yeah

Forget about what could
Yeah, what could have been
That's what you do, now
Just pick up the pieces and start over again, yeah, yeah

Pick up, pick up all those pieces
That's what you do
Pick up those pieces
Start all over again, oh yeah
Pick up the pieces, now, I know you can
