Shoebox Lyrics

Everyone said, "It's time to let go"
To throw away all of the cards that you owned
The moments we framed
The words that you meant
I'm sat with the stuff on the edge of our bed

Ooh
I know the next part of healing's giving up these feelings
Ooh
But I'm a mess 'cause I wanna keep 'em

I still got all of your things in a shoebox
Under my bed that I said that I'd throw out
I'm holding on to bring you back
But no, it don't work like that
Still got all of your things in a shoebox
Need to let go, but I won't 'cause you're gone now
No, I can't seem to follow through
When it's all I got left, all I got left of you
All I got left, all I got left of you, all

I know it don't help
But can't help myself
I take out the notes
And I read them out loud
As though you were here
Sat on the stairs
Planning that trip like you'd never left

Ooh
I know the next part of healing's giving up these feelings
Ooh
But I'm a mess 'cause I wanna keep 'em

I still got all of your things in a shoebox
Under my bed that I said that I'd throw out
I'm holding on to bring you back
But no, it don't work like that
Still got all of your things in a shoebox
Need to let go, but I won't 'cause you're gone now
No, I can't seem to follow through
When it's all I got left, all I got left

I'm holding on to bring you back
But no, it don't work like that
No, I can't seem to follow through
When it's all I got left of you
I'm holding on to bring you back
But no, it don't work like that
No, I can't seem to follow through
Oh-oh, oh

I still got all of your things in a shoebox
Under my bed that I said that I'd throw out
I'm holding on to bring you back
But no, it don't work like that
Still got all of your things in a shoebox
Need to let go, but I won't 'cause you're gone now
No, I can't seem to follow through
When it's all I got left, all I got left of you
All I got left, all I got left of you, oh
