First of all must go

Your scent upon my pillow -
And then i'll say goodbye
To your whispers in my dreams...
And then our lips will part
In my mind and in my heart -
'Cause your kiss
Went deeper than my skin...

Piece by piece -
Is how i'll let go of you.
Kiss by kiss
Will leave my mind one at a time,
One at a time.

First of all must fly
My dreams of you and i -
There's no point in holding on to those.
And then our ties will break,
For your and my own sake -
Just remember:
This is what you chose.

Piece by piece
Is how i'll let go of you.
Kiss by kiss
Will leave my mind one at a time,
One at a time.

I'll shed like skin
Our memories of lazy days,
And fade away the shadow of your face.

Piece by piece
Is how i'll let go of you.
Kiss by kiss
Will leave my mind one at a time,
One at a time,
One at a time.
