Lyrics

She keeps a little drawer with pictures and letters from before Things she couldn't throw away.
Yeah she hid them up in the attic where they wouldn't interrupt the love she's working on today.

CHORUS
So throw the empties in the back. Let the bottles roll around the floor.
Hit the gas and Don't look back. Anymore.

Dress she used to love to wear sits hanging in the closet there. Waiting to hear a reason why.
She kept the silver ring, he won in some circus game and gave her before he said goodbye.

CHORUS

Romance started as a whim. They both got too far in. It's easy to lose yourself in those eyes.
And if you ask her about him, she'll say "yeah we were friends" With a smile the lonely recognize.

CHORUS x2
