Fiona Apple – Parting Gift Lyrics  Share

From Fiona Apple's album: Extraordinary Machine

I opened my eyes
While you were kissing me once more than once
And you looked as sincere as a dog
Just as sincere as a dog does,
When it^,s the food on your lips with which it^,s in love

I bet you could never tell
That I knew you didn^,t know me that well
It is my fault you see
You never learned that much from me

Oh you silly stupid pastime of mine
You were always good for a rhyme
And from the first, to the last time, the signs
Said ^,Stop^, - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started
They said ^,Stop^, - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started

I took off my glasses
[ Parting Gift lyrics from

While you were yelling at me once more than once
So as not to see you see me react
Should^,ve put ^,em, should^,ve put ^,em on again
So I could see you see me sincerely yelling back

I bet your fortressed face
Belied your fort of lace
It is by the grace of me
You never learned what I could see

Oh you silly stupid pastime of mine
You were always good for a rhyme
And from the first to all the last times, all the signs
Said ^,Stop^, - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started
They said ^,Stop^, - but we went on whole-hearted
It ended bad, but I love what we started
