parting gift
Parting Gift I opened my eyes While you were kissing me once more than once And you looked as sincere as a dog Just as sincere as a dog does, When it's the food on your lips with which it's in love I bet you could never tell That I knew you didn't know me that well It is my fault you see You never learned that much from me Oh you silly, stupid pastime of mine You were always good for a rhyme And from the first to the last time The signs says 'stop' But we went on whole-hearted it ended bad But I love what we started They said 'stop' But we went on whole-hearted it ended bad But I love what we started I took off my glasses While you were yelling at me once more than once So's not to see you see me react Should've put 'em, should've put 'em on again So I could see you see me sincerely yelling back I bet your fortressed face Belied your fort of lace It is by the grace of me You never learned what I could see Oh you silly, stupid pastime of mine You were always good for a rhyme And from the first to all the last time All the signs says 'stop' But we went on whole-hearted it ended bad But I love what we started They said 'stop' But we went on whole-hearted it ended bad But I love what we started
