Piece by Piece - Idol Version

And all I remember is your back
 ♪
 Walking towards the airport, leaving us all in your past
 I traveled 15 hundred miles, to see you
 ♪
 I begged you to want me, but you didn't want to
 But piece by piece, he collected me
 Up off the ground, where you abandoned things
 Piece by piece, he filled the holes that you burned in me at
 Six years old, and you know
 He never walks away
 He never asks for money
 He takes care of me
 He loves me
 Piece by piece, he restores my faith
 That a man can be kind and a father could stay
 ♪
 And all of your words fall flat
 ♪
 I made something of myself and now you wanna come back
 
 But your love, it isn't free, it has to be earned
 Back then I didn't have anything you needed, so I was worthless
 But piece by piece, he collected me
 Up off the ground, where you abandoned things
 Piece by piece, he filled the holes that you burned in me at
 Six years old, and you know
 He never walks away
 He never asks for money
 He takes care of me
 'Cause he loves me
 Piece by piece, he restores my faith
 That a man can be kind and a father could stay
 Piece by piece
 Piece by piece
 I fell far from the tree
 I will never leave her like you left me, and
 She will never have to wonder her worth
 Because unlike you, I'm gonna put her first
 And you know
 He'll never walk away
 He'll never break her heart
 He'll take care of things
 He'll love her
 Piece by piece
 He'll restore my faith
 That a man can be kind and a father should be great
