lyrics

Well you can come to lunch, or you can come to tea.
And you can stay for breakfast, oh that’s alright with me.
Well you can eat my food and burn my fire,
Whatever is your heart’s desire.
You can use it up, you can have it whole,
It’s all yours, but not my soul.

Well you can have my home, and you can drive my car.
And I won’t throw you out, not even if things go to far.
Well you can have my books and all you see,
They’re yours now they don't belong to me.
You can use them up, you can have them whole,
They’re all yours, but not my soul.

Well you can have my body, anywhere in the house.
And you can have my heart, there’s no need to rip it out.
Well you can be my lover and my dearest friend,
All I have is your’s to spend.
You can use it up, you can have it whole,
It’s all yours, but not my soul.

Well I want your body, and I want your love
I want them both in times of plenty,
And when the push it comes to shove.
I want to be your lover, and your closest friend.
Ease your life and you defend.
I want to share it, share it whole,
Share it all, but not your soul.
