[Verse 1]
I've been let down
I've been dragged around so long
I've been begging, "please"
Give your love to me some more
[Pre-Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Post-Chorus]
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
May spend a lifetime trying to please
The feeling's are forward to you
[Verse 2]
You know someday, when you're old and gray
You'll see, you can't have everything
But you can keep it under lock and key
[Chorus 2]
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
[Post-Chorus]
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
May spend a lifetime trying to please me
The feeling's are forward to you
[Bridge]
You know someday, when you're old and gray
You'll see, you can't have everything
But you can keep it under lock and key
[Chorus 2]
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
[Outro]
The rest of me
The rest of me
The rest of me
You can take all I have to give
But you can't have the rest of me
