Lyrics

Half The Heart

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I pour coffee for myself and leave your cup on the shelf

I've got half as much breakfast to set

I've got twice as much bed for half as much sleep

And all the time that I need to myself

There's no dinner to cook

So I can read another book

There's half as much laundry to do

So now for a change

I can do what I please

Since I don't have to worry with you

I've got twice as much time on my hands

But only half the heart to use it

I should be glad that I'm free

But you took half the heart from me

I've got room for my shoes another closet to use

More space than I'll ever need

I've got half the mind to call you sometimes

And find out how you make it without me

I've got twice as much time on my hands

But only half the heart to use it

I should be glad that I'm free

But you took half the heart from me

I've got twice as much time on my hands

But only half the heart to use it

I should be glad that I'm free

But you took half the heart from me
