|
The phone rings |
|
And I don't care who it is that is calling |
|
You moved our things from ours to his |
|
While outside the snow is falling |
|
The wedding band that meant so much |
|
Signified our blessed vow |
|
Like coffee spills and unpaid bills and all my pills |
|
It's in a dusty dresser drawer now |
|
I watched these trees from green to brown |
|
Suddenly this small town has gotten smaller |
|
The arctic breeze it sings to me, and says now look |
|
Any fool can go out and walk on water |
|
I shoulda known that time alone |
|
Would only serve to break you down |
|
Don't know why I sit and stare at that damn thing sitting there |
|
In a dusty dresser drawer now |
|
Snow has turned to water |
|
To please the trees |
|
And cheer up that late bloomer |
|
While I'm sipping on a beer counting down another year |
|
Couldn't come a second sooner |
|
I wonder how easily that ring it slid off of your finger |
|
Did you stop for a moment |
|
Let the memory of us linger |
|
Or was it just an afterthought |
|
Like casting water from a bow |
|
I'm past the point of crying |
|
For a love that lies there dying |
|
In a dusty dresser drawer now |
|
It's such a goddamn shame |
|
Right next to your picture frame |
|
In a dusty dresser drawer now |
|
If anybody asks me what I think, that love is for now, I'll tell them |
|
Look in a dusty dresser drawer now |
