lyrics

That Part is True
words and music by MPFS

I loved you more than I ever loved a woman
But I didn’t love you well I was thinking too much
I was so dumb I couldn’t tie my laces
When you were looking at me I couldn’t park the car

That part is true and this other part is also true:
I loved you more than I ever loved a woman

Man, I got friends, I call ‘em on the phone
I act all casual, they say “what’s going on Mikey?”
I say you know my heart because it’s where you reside
You know my arms, you can crash there any time

Yeah, that part is true and this other part is also true
I love you more than I ever loved a woman

I drink all the time, it’s because I am thirsty
But I could tell you ‘bout my brother, how he became my hero
I could tell you ‘bout my mother, she works overtime

Yeah, that part is true and this other part is also true
I loved you more than I ever loved a woman

Yeah that part is true and this other part is also true
You know my heart because it’s where you reside
You know my arms, you can crash there anytime
