That's Not The Part Of Him You're Leaving - Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

Written by：Elvis Costello[00:00:00]

I have a friend[00:00:13]

She's just a friend[00:00:16]

I tried to comfort and defend[00:00:19]

I gave her what you might call advice[00:00:25]

But nothing like that comes without a price[00:00:31]

The rumour was a cruel surprise[00:00:37]

And she dissolved before my eyes[00:00:44]

I offered my hand and hers and mine entwined[00:00:50]

I thought about back then when I wished that she could be mine[00:00:56]

There's no use in shedding any tears[00:01:02]

He's no good to you the way he is[00:01:09]

He's gone beyond forgiving and believing[00:01:16]

Half of his heart is torn like paper[00:01:28]

It's sweet as the syrup from the maple[00:01:34]

But that's not the part of him you're leaving[00:01:42]

In time they're bound to wonder why[00:02:06]

It's just a thrill you can't deny[00:02:12]

I offered my shoulder right away[00:02:18]

Now people will talk about what I can't say[00:02:24]

And yet the whispers still persist[00:02:31]

They're getting harder to resist[00:02:37]

How am I supposed to stop loving you now I've begun[00:02:44]

And sorry for what I might do more than what I have done[00:02:50]

There's no use in shedding any tears[00:02:56]

He's no good to you the way he is[00:03:02]

He's gone beyond forgiving and believing[00:03:10]

Half of his heart is filled with pain[00:03:22]

That's sweet as a lick of sugarcane[00:03:28]

But that's not the part of him you're leaving[00:03:36]

Love is a many splintered thing[00:03:48]

That only cuts roses and ribbons that cling[00:03:53]

But that's not the part of him you're leaving[00:04:01]
