Boxes lyrics

Closed down the house now on this sad affair

very last step of a thousand steps there

and will we every reach the sky now I won`t care

He called me liar when I told him I loved him

and I thought it was plain as the sky above him

He called me a liar

Yeah, he called me a liar



And I got these boxes piled up on the lawn

And I say to myself in a little while I`ll be gone

And he will just turn back into the house and go on

And my car will drive away and turn into a song



He got the lampshade, I got the cat.

Strange sensation, coming down to that

Strange sensation, coming down to that ...baby

He`s got the four walls and I`ve got the sky of gray

He said he`d like to get out of harm`s way

Ooooohhh

Get out, baby



And I got these boxes piled up on the lawn

And I say to myself in a little while I`ll be gone

And he will just turn back into the house and go on

And my car will drive away and turn into a song

He wants me to understand and he wants me to say

how I understand we`d be better off this way

wants me to pack my things and he wants me to go

but he sure does care about me, oh he wants me to know



I got these boxes piled up on the lawn

And I say to myself in a little while I`ll be gone

And he will just turn back into the house and go on

And my car will drive away and turn into a song
