I've been let down
I've been dragged around so long
I've been begging, "please"
Give your love to me some more
You got battle scars
Stripped across your heart
You know it's plain to see
You can't have my number
But you can have the rest of me

Tell me, sweetheart
Do you fall apart, sometimes?
And when she walks away
Do you try to say you're fine?
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

But you can send me flowers everyday
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
But feelings are foreign to you

You know someday
When you're old and gray, you'll see
You can have everything
But you can't keep it under lock and key
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

But you can send me flowers everyday
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

You know someday
When you're old and gray, you'll see
You can have everything
But you can't keep it under lock and key
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 rest of me

The best of me
The best of me
The best of me
You can take all that I have to give
But you can't have the rest of me
