Half my heart's enchanted and amused
the other half is dislocated distressed & confused
half my heart just needs you night and day
the other half just needs to know you're far away
and how many times are you gonna make me cry ?
and how many times are you gonna say goodbye ?

half my heart is a bird so high she flies and sings
the other half is a scorpion crawls in the dirt, stings
half my heart's been held in love so true
the other half has been abandoned misled and abused
and how many times are you gonna make me cry ?
and how many times are you gonna say goodbye ?

what else can you take from me ? I don't even care
half my heart beats inside of me
the other half's not there
