[Verse 1] I left a piece in Lisbon rain A little heat in a stranger's name Sent one north where the long trains run Kept one warm for my sister's son I gave one away in a market crowd One to a friend who said it out loud Every goodbye took a different shape Every new door made another break [Pre-Chorus] I kept trying to gather the scattered parts With both hands pressed against my heart But the map kept growing under my skin And there was no way to fold it in [Chorus] My heart is everywhere now A room in a hundred towns A hand on a shoulder, a light left on A name I carry when the person is gone My heart is everywhere now It won't come back in one piece somehow I used to call that losing ground Now I know love is how it gets around [Verse 2] There is a window facing the sea That holds a version of what I could be A kitchen where somebody saves my seat A dusty road with my song underneath I mailed my courage across the blue Left my patience with someone new I thought a heart was a house with a door Now mine has hallways I can't count anymore [Pre-Chorus] I kept trying to name what remained The missing, the mercy, the mark, the stain But every fragment learned to beat In places I may never see [Chorus] My heart is everywhere now A room in a hundred towns A hand on a shoulder, a light left on A name I carry when the person is gone My heart is everywhere now It won't come back in one piece somehow I used to call that losing ground Now I know love is how it gets around [Bridge] So if I seem distant, I am not gone I am in the bread, I am in the dawn In the borrowed coat, in the old refrain In the quiet kindness after the rain I cannot return to the shape I knew But I can make a home in the split-through Let every country keep what it found Let every small piece keep making sound [Final Chorus] My heart is everywhere now A room in a hundred towns A hand on a shoulder, a light left on A name I carry when the person is gone My heart is everywhere now It won't come back in one piece somehow I used to call that losing ground Now I know love is how it gets around [Outro] Keep a piece, keep a piece Wherever you are Keep a piece, keep a piece That is where my heart starts
