"Missing Piece" lyrics
"Missing Piece"
I've been waiting for the tides to change
For the waves to send you my way
I see you, darling, but you pixelate
It gets hard to take these days
But we'll hold the line, I won't let go
'Cause I'll be there when you can finally make it home
And I don't mind
'Cause we both know
That we'll be fine when you can finally make it home
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
You know when you're by my side, darling
Nothing can bring us down
I remember happy wasted days
Summer's golden haze in our eyes
Lifting you above the breaking waves
Memories floating back to my mind
You said hold the line, I won't let go
'Cause I'll be there when you can finally make it home
And I don't mind
'Cause we both know
That we'll be fine when you can finally make it home
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
You know when you're by my side, darling
Nothing can bring us down
It's like when you're far away from me
I get lost in the crowd
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
I won't waste a minute when you're here
And we're finally in the clear
When every day is like the last
I just keeping holding fast
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found
You know when you're by my side, darling
Nothing can bring us down
It's like when you're far away from me
I get lost in the crowd
Because when I'm in a room with you
That missing piece is found

Vance Joy posted the following about "Missing Piece" on Facebook on the 15th of May, 2021,
"I wrote it with Joel Little on a 'zoom' during lockdown. It's about being separated from the one you love. It can be hard but you're not too fazed because you'll do what it takes to see each other again and this connection ain't going nowhere! I know so many people were (and still are) in that same boat." The song ans its accompanied
video premiered on the 20th of May, 2021.
According to Variety, Vance Joy wrote this song in 2020 while quarantining in his hometown of Melbourne, Australia, away from his girlfriend who stayed in Spain. They got separated because of the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. Joy explained, "I know a lot of people were separated, and travel was difficult and still is. It's a song about wanting to see and be with someone, but also the feeling of not being too fazed. It's a consolation knowing that when you do see each other, it's all going to be good — what you have is so good that even if it's a long time, you can wait it out and you know that whatever you have is not just for right now."
This song was used at the end of the third-to-last episode of the 17th season of the ABC TV show "Grey's Anatomy". The episode, aired on the 21st of May, 2021, saw the departure of Dr. Avery as she recalled her time at Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital.

Look at you all dressed up for someone you never see
