Pieces Of Sky Lyrics - Comfort Of Strangers - Beth Orton

These memories are just pieces of sky 

Pieces of something much bigger than I 

To anyone else just endless blue 

I see time framed, an image of you 

These memories hold me like the moon 

Holds the sea like the sky holds the sun 

The sea holds my tears and carries me 

When my heart is too heavy for one 

When it's over, it's over 

I best get busy living 

Been a long time gone 

A dress made of air and webs and you 

The way dreams evaporate as they come true 

To anyone else just endless blue 

An invisible kite string connects me to you 

I knew that it's selfish to think you'd come here 

There's so many people that must need you near 

There's so many people that need to know 

That you're still with them even when you go 

That you're still with them even when they don't know 

When it's over, it's over 

I best get busy living 

You'll be a long time gone 

How do you know how much you'll be missed 

Does it add up to some names on a list 

Do you know we're just pieces of sky 

Pieces of sky that keep drifting by
