Picking Up the Pieces Deniece Williams

Say you want to drown
Drown in your tears
Say there's been too many heartaches
Through the years, my dear

But the spirit deep inside
Is calling out your name
It says, "just you hold on
Hang on, help is on the way"

Start picking up the pieces
Start picking up the pieces

Life is just a game
The game of strategy
You can play to win or lose
Play it fair or play it to cheat
It's all up to you
It's all up to you
Yes, it is, yeah

Mm-hmm
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la

Well, every time you fall
From the weight of the world
It just gives you one more chance
To stand real tall, yes, sir
