Pieces of My Heart

I grew up thinking you work hard to be a doctor or a lawyer

Get married, have some babies, and plant your roots down in the ground

But I turned all that upside down

I'm in a traveling band

Playing music on a stage

We run down the highway in a van

See where the dream takes us today

I keep leaving pieces of my heart

In all these towns that feel like home

I can't help that I'm a traveler

It's in my veins, it's in my bones

I'm not afraid to stop, it's just that I was born to go

I know that I'll see you again down the road

I fit my whole life in a suitcase, and I carry my guitar

And all these songs inside my head

They are my flashlight in the dark

Bring me back when I drift too far

There's so much I wanna see

So many places left to go

I don't wanna miss a thing

So, I keep watching out the window

I keep leaving pieces of my heart

In all these towns that feel like home

I can't help that I'm a traveler

It's in my veins, it's in my bones

I'm not afraid to stop, it's just that I was born to go

I know that I'll see you again down the road

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

I keep leaving pieces of my heart

In all these towns that feel like home

I can't help that I'm a traveler

It's in my veins, it's in my bones

I'm not afraid to stop, it's just that I was born to go

I know that I'll see you again down the road, yeah

I keep leaving pieces of my heart

In all these towns that feel like home

I leave it up there on that hook, just hanging like a coat

So, if you find it and you're cold, well, put it on and say "hello"

I know that I'll see you again down the road

I know that I'll see you again down the road, yeah

I keep leaving pieces of my heart down the road
