Do what you will, it's a gift given freely
to decorate your sleeve, or leave on your floor
You can't put conditions on gifts given freely
Except for this: really, I don't need it no more
Apart from that do what you will, what it tickles
Your fancy is free to; it's at your dispose.
To give to Goodwill, or your charity preference
It don't make no difference, you know
It's not my heart now this one is yours
Hold it! Keep it!
This one is yours, now
it's not my heart, girl, this one is yours
Break it! Leave it.
That's what it's for, anyhow
It's not as if you or if I were the wrong one
It's cooperation
That's brought us so far
So far from so close, we can't see the fork taken
That led us away from
Where we gave our hearts
When you took yours back, well you did it so deftly.
So true and completely: your touch like a pro
But I don't need mine! You can keep it for practice
It's really quite useless, you know
It's not my heart, girl this one is yours
Take it! Keep it. This one is yours.
Now, it's not my heart, now this one is yours:
Break it! Leave it? That's what it's for,
Anyhow.
