Chuck Melugin Poet Lyric

Half

You said...It's over, said and done
My love no longer is the one
You're more concerned how the judge
Divides up the parts
Which half do you want
Of my old broken heart

I know you're seeking custody
Of every little thing but me
And since you won't be around
When I fall apart
Which half do you want
Of my old broken heart

The only... thing left to decide
Is the better half....yours or mine

I know our love is history
But you deserve your share of memories
How about a little gift from me
For your brand new start
Which half do you want
Of my old broken heart
