Artist/Band: Bonnie Raitt
Lyrics for Song: One Part Be My Lover
Lyrics for Album: Luck Of The Draw [1991]



When he looks in her eyes

he sees only the truth

Tellin' him he's been living a lie

Over and over like a line in a song

about all the love he let pass him by

To her he might be the man of her dreams

to find what she's been hiding inside

Broken or battered it really don't matter

Her hearts like a wave and he's the tide



They're not forever just for today

One part be my lover, one part go away



He's like a boxer who had to retire

after winning but killing a man

All of the moves and none of the courage

afraid to throw a punch that might land

Not too much later she can't meet his glance

You see her start pulling away

Over and over like fire and ice

one is colored, one is gray



They're not forever just for today

One part be my lover, one part go away



If you know how why don't you say em' a prayer

they're gonna need all they help they can get

they remember too much about what went wrong

it might be they should learn to forget

Forget themselves in each other

and leave what belongs in the past

carry thier hearts like a new born child

cause it's only the moment that lasts.



They're not forever, just day to day.

One part be my lover one part go away.



One part go away
