Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I been let down
I been dragged around so long
I been begging, please
Give your love to me some more
[Verse 2]
You got battle scars
Stripped across your heart
You know it's plain to see
Well, you can have my number
But you can't have the rest of me
[Verse 3]
Tell me, sweetheart
Do you fall apart sometimes?
And when she walks away
Do you try to say you're fine?
[Verse 4]
And if you ever need a friend
If you ever need a little company
You can take up all of my time
But you can't take the rest of me
[Verse 5]
You can send me flowers every day
And never look at me the way
That other lovers often sometimes do
You can promise me you'll never leave me
Spend a lifetime trying to please
But feelings are foreign to you
[Verse 6]
You know, someday
When you're old and grey, you'll see
You can have everything
But you can't keep it under lock and key
[Verse 7]
And if you ever need a friend
If you ever need a little sympathy
You can take all I have to give
But you can't take the rest of me
[Verse 8]
Well, you can send me flowers every day
And never look at me the way
That other lovers often sometimes do
You can promise me you'll never leave me
Spend a lifetime trying to please me
Feelings are foreign to you
[Verse 9]
You know, someday
When you're old and grey, you'll see
You can have everything
But you can't keep it under lock and key
[Verse 10]
And if you ever need a friend
If you ever need a little sympathy
You can take all I have to give
But you can't have the best of me
[Verse 11]
The best of me
The best of me
The best of me
You can take all I have to give
But you can't have the rest of me
