Expired Lover Lyrics

I don't want you anymore
Summer's gone, and now I'm sure
The box behind my bed I've saved
I took out with the trash today

Oh, the truth is: I've met someone new
The truth is: you probably have, too
The truth is: I can't stand your face
When I think of all the love we made

Oh, we took a walk- we took a walk out by the Hudson River,
The human breaks, you need to please, and make my shoulders shiver.

You asked me, "Baby girl, how long until my heart recovers?"

I'm sure the answer's "Never."

You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover

No, I'm not the only girl to save
Items past their expiration date

I sucked you up, 'til my stomach churned
My throat closed, my eyes would burn
Someone told me that love was suppose to hurt
But, now I've learned.

And, I don't want this anymore
Like hand-me-downs, waitin' by my door.
I kept you around, but I don't know what for.
So, I took a walk all by myself from river side to south street.

It's 2 a.m.; I've let you in, and whenever your here, I can't sleep.
Is there anyway to save you and me?
Baby, now that I've discovered, enjoy takin' all my covers, this is your last sleep over.

You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover

You're a top back shelf, out of date, too late, expired lover.
