Part-Time Love
 
Music by Elton John

Part-time love
Is bringing me down 'cause I just can't get started
With you, my love
Did I hear you saying that I'm too hard hearted?
Wipe those stars from your eyes
And you'll get quite a surprise
Because you'll see everybody's got a part-time love

You've been seen
Running around there's not much I don't hear of
And still you try
Telling me all the things I must stay clear of
Don't tell me what to do
When you've been doing it too
Because you, me, and everybody's got a part-time love

Falling, I'm falling, can't get free
Baby if you keep on stalling
Oh how can I make you see
That you, me, and everybody needs a part-time love

Part-time love
I seem to be pulling in the wrong direction
With you, my love
Whatever I do you raise the same objection
I've got someone at home
But she's got a love of her own
Because you, me, and everybody got a part-time love

I'm waiting, I'm waiting all the time
And it's getting so frustrating
Love, well it ain't no crime
Because you, me, and everybody needs a part-time love
And oh you, me, and everybody's got a part-time love
And oh you, me, and everybody needs a part-time love
You, me - everybody got a part-time love
