Lyrics

[00:09.45] After work I packed my desktop and went out for a-walkin'
[00:14.60] The closest liquor store had just ran out of boxes
[00:19.38] So I went down to Bogart to get more cardboard boxes for the move
[00:28.61] As I wished that I could drink what was once sold in these boxes
[00:33.63] The sky started to rain and my guts felt nauseous
[00:38.34] Cause I couldn't tell you that my heart had been starting to move
[00:47.18] Had to struggle down the road with fifteen soggy boxes
[00:52.39] The rope had cut my skin and the boxes I kept dropping, yeah
[00:57.20] I'm boxing out my best friend
[00:59.52] At least I'll do a good job for the move
[01:06.30] I'm lying to my best friend
[01:08.94] At least I'll do a good job for the move
[01:15.78]
[01:29.90] When I came home you were sleeping surrounded by boxes
[01:34.40] Read a Christmas card from you and put it in my pocket
[01:39.08] Hid a picture of the two of you
[01:41.69] You were sitting smiling in a photo booth
[01:48.62] As I tiptoed round the couch, tripped, ripped lamp out of socket
[01:53.41] I was stacking til the sun rose, couldn't stop packing boxes
[01:58.30] It dawned on me abruptly as I emptied out all contents from the room
[02:07.40] And I thought back to the time when were both sick
[02:12.22] And I held on to your hand in the back of ambulance
[02:16.68] Now I'm holding onto masking taping up these boxes for the move
[02:26.01] Now I'm wearing lots of masks and taping up these boxes for the move
[02:35.10] And you know I hate to make you cry so now I'm taping up these boxes for the move
