She's like a sweater, old and used
|
Tossed and overworn too many times through
|
And she used to look so bright
|
All her seams were tightly tied
|
|
She's like a sweater that's just worn out
|
Fading, coffee stained, and out of style
|
And she's just about to run
|
Before her stitches come undone
|
|
She's gonna pack her bags & leave
|
No more loose, unravelled seams
|
She is young & she still has her confidence
|
And it's not too late to tie up those loose ends
|
|
She's like a fire in the rain
|
His words will damp her eyes & heat her veins
|
And the love she thought she found was just another
|
Hand-me-down of dwindled grace
|
|
She's gonna pack her bags & leave
|
No more loose, unravelled seams
|
She is young & she still has her confidence
|
And it's not too late to tie up those loose ends
|
|
She's found a refuge for her face
|
While dividing her unfortunate displace
|
Now she stands too high for them to ring her dry
|
She's found her way
|
|
She's gonna pack her bags & leave
|
No more loose, unravelled seams
|
She is young & she still has her confidence
|
And it's not too late to tie up those loose ends
|
