It's Not the Thing Henry Lyrics

You're asking the wrong question
To the wrong person
And it's hurting you to listen
I wanna be truthful
But you gotta be certain
This is what you meanAh Henry, would you look at me
You cannot have it all and I will not make it easy
Henry, I'm not grateful for small merciesNo matter how light the purse is
All the things you need don't mean a thing to me
It's not the air I breathe, it's not the thing, HenryAm I taking the wrong meaning in concluding
That the error is of your choosing
You've got to be simple
If you think that you're moving
More than the ire in meAh Henry, would you look at me
You cannot have it all and I will not make it easy
Henry, I'm not grateful for small merciesNo matter how light the purse is
All the things you need don't mean a thing to me
It's not the air I breathe, it's not the thing, HenryAll the things you need don't mean a thing to me

It's not the air I breathe, it's not the thing, Henry
