Hey
if we can't solve any problems
and why do we lose so many tears?
Oh
so you go again
when the leading man appears.

Always the same theme
can't you see
We've got ev'rything
going on and on and on.

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you.
Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you.

Go on and go free
maybe you're too close to see.
I can feel your body move
does it mean that much to me.

I can't go on
singing the same theme
'cause can't you see
We've got ev'rything
baby even though you know:

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you.
Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you.

Can't go on singing the same theme
'cause baby can't you see
We've got ev'rything
going on and on and on.

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you.
Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you.

Every time you go away
You take a piece of me with you.

Every time
every time you go away - but I don't care -
You take a piece of me with you.

Every time you go away -
Every time you go away - don't leave me all alone.

And breakin' up a piece of me. Eyery time you go away.
