Parts

Just give me parts of you?

Just little parts

The part that loved me

Or the part that I made smile,

Just by being near you.



                                                                                                                                                        Maybe the part that played with my hair

                                                                                                                                                    Whenever my head was resting on your lap

                                                                                                                                                   The part that called me whenever I was sad

                                                                                                                                                               And wouldn’t hang up until I laughed



You don't have to give me other parts

The part that deleted my number

The part that couldn’t care less about what I'm going through

The part that hates seeing me walk into a room now





                                                                                        I just want parts of you.

                                                                                                    Just parts.
