Million Pieces
(Kissin' Your Cares Goodbye)

Doo-doo doo-doo.
Oh yeah.
Doo-doo doo-doo.
Oh yeah.
Doo-doo doo-doo.
Oh yeah-heh-heh.
Doo-doo doo-doo.

Oh, they all fall
Like a million raindrops
Falling from a blue sky,
Kissin' your cares goodbye.
Oh, they all fall
Like a million pieces.
A tickertape parade high,
And now you're free to fly.

Carryin' a millstone malaise.
It's been pulling down your gaze.
You pound the pavement.
It don't give or care.
This weight ain't yours to bear.

Why you holdin' grudges in old jars?
Why you wanna show off all your scars?
What's it gonna take to lay a few burdens down?
It's a beautiful sound

When they all fall
Like a million raindrops
Falling from a blue sky,
Kissin' your cares goodbye.
Oh, they all fall
Like a million pieces.
A tickertape parade high,
And now you're free to fly.

When that muffled sigh
Says you're barely getting by,
Cut your burdens loose and just simplify.
Simplify.

This is not your floor.
You're going higher than before.
Drop the weight now
Wait for the lookout guide.
Look outside

As they all fall
Like a million raindrops
Falling from a blue sky,
Kissin' your cares goodbye.
Oh, they all fall
Like a million pieces.
A tickertape parade high,
And now you're free to fly.

You've gotta lay that burden down.
You're gonna lay that burden down.
It's time to leave your burdens in a pyre.
Set a bonfire.

'Cause when you lay your burdens down,
When you lay your burdens down,
When you drop them burdens,
What a free-fall.
What a thrill.
Bury them all
In a landfill.

Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo
Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo
Doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo

Oh oh, they all fall
Like a million raindrops
Falling from a blue sky,
Kissin' your cares goodbye.
Oh oh, they all fall
Like a million pieces.
A tickertape parade high,
And now you're free to fly.

Oh, they all fall
Like a million raindrops
(Oh yeah)
Falling from a blue sky,
Kissin' your cares goodbye.
(Oh yeah-heh-heh)
Oh oh, they all fall
(Oh yeah)
Like a million pieces.
(Oh yeah)
A tickertape parade high,
(Oh yeah)
And now you're free to fly.
(Oh yeah-heh-heh)

(Oh, lay your burdens down)
They all fall
(Kiss your cares goodbye)
Like a million raindrops
(Now you're free to fly)
Falling from a blue sky,
(You're free to fly)
Kissin' your cares goodbye.
(Oh, lay your burdens down)
Oh oh, they all fall
(Kiss your cares goodbye)
Like a million pieces.
(Now you're free to fly)
A tickertape parade high...
