If I'd only had one arm to hold you Better yet if I had none at all Then I wouldn't have two arms that ache for you There'd be one less mem'ry to recall
If I'd only had one ear to listen To the lies that you told to me Then I more closely resemble The half a man that you've made of me [ strings + piano ]
And if I had been born with but one eye Then I'd only have one eye that cries And if half of my heart turned to ashes Maybe half of my heartaches would die
If I'd only had one leg to stand on then how much how much truer picture you'd see For then I more closely resemble the half a man that you've made of me
