HALF YOUR HEART
(Hal Blair / Louis Duhig)


Bonnie Guitar - 1957


Half your heart is all you give to me
I taste the sorrow in your kiss
Someone else still claims a part of you
Will it always be like this

I thought the past would soon disappear
And you'd belong to me
But your heart's holding on to an old souvenir
And I can't fight a memory

Half your heart will go on hurting me
We'd be much better off apart
Leave me, darlin', until you decide
Who gets more than half your heart
