Lyrics - Pieces of Gold
©2009 Jane McGuffin

I gave you pieces of gold
Shaped like the sun
I gave you pieces of gold
Shaped like the moon
I gave you pieces of gold
The edges worn and frayed
Now autumn leaves
cover my heart and blow away

I gave you pieces of love
Shaped like my heart
I gave you flowers and smiles
Along the way
You picked them up from the ground
and took them to your room
Now autumn leaves
fall on my heart and fall away

My heart flutters down
All over this town
For the love that blows away
For the love that wraps around my soul
And breaks with each new day

We were a couple
going on ten
Turning fifteen
never again
Our childhood gone
We danced away
Now autumn leaves
Cover the streets and blow away

Yellow leaves
like pieces of gold
Tell the story of love grown old
They cover the streets
The cover the road
My heart flutters down
All over this town

My heart flutters down
All over this town
For the love that blows away
For the love that wraps around my soul
And breaks with each new day
