Tom Waits

Part You Throw Away

You dance real slow
You wreck it down
You walk away, then you turn around
What did that old blonde gal say?
That is the part...
You throw a__way
I want that beggars eyes
A winning horse
A tidy Mexican divorce
St. Mary's prayers houdini's Hands
And a Barman who always
Un__der__stands
Will you loose the flowers hold on to the vase
Will you wipe all those teardrops away from your face
I can't help thinking as I close the door
I have done all of this
Many times before
The bone must go
The wish can stay
The kiss don't know what the lips will say
Forget I've hurt you put stones in your bed
And remember to never
Mind ins__tead
Well all of your letters burned up in the fire
Time is just memory mixed in with Desire
That's not the road it is only the map I say
Gone just like matches
From a closed down cabaret
In a Portuguese Saloon
A fly is a circling
around The room
You'll soon forget the tune that you play
For that is the part
You throw a__way
Ah, that is the part
You throw a__way
