And when she walks away do you try to say you’re fine? And if you ever need a friend If you ever need a little company You can take up all of my time But you can’t take the rest of me [Chorus] But you can send me flowers everyday And never look at me the way that other lovers often sometimes do You can promise me you’ll never leave me May spend a lifetime trying to please The feeling’s are forward to you [Verse 3] You know someday when you’re old and gray You’ll see you can’t have everything But you can keep it under lock and key And if you ever need a friend If you ever need a little sympathy You can take all I have to give But you can’t take the rest of me [Chorus] But you can send me flowers everyday And never look at me the way that other lovers often sometimes do You can promise me you’ll never leave me May spend a lifetime trying to please me The feeling’s are forward to you [Verse 4] You know someday when you’re old and gray You’ll see you can’t have everything But you can keep it under lock and key And if you ever need a friend If you ever need a little sympathy You can take all I have to give But you can’t have the best of me [Chorus] The best of me The best of me The best of me You can take all I have to give But you can’t have the rest of me

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque le sentiment de vulnérabilité dans une relation, où l'un des partenaires se sent blessé et demande de l'amour. Il exprime le désir d'être soutenu et compris, tout en affirmant que malgré la volonté de donner, certaines parts de soi doivent rester protégées. L'idée est que l'on peut partager beaucoup, mais que certaines choses essentielles, comme l'intégrité personnelle et les émotions profondes, doivent rester intactes. Dans son essence, la chanson parle de la complexité des relations amoureuses, où l'on souhaite offrir son soutien tout en gardant une part de soi-même pour se protéger des déceptions. C'est un équilibre délicat entre l'ouverture et la préservation de son identité.
