Half The Heart

(album: Good Love And Heartbreak - 1982)

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
