lyrics

Today's the day I've been dreading
The official exchanging
Of all the things that we had left at each other's places
I went over to his apartment
Where we traded back odd and ends
While trying desperately not to look into each other's faces

Because the babies, the cars
And the house with the yard
And the picket fence
The two-point-five fantasy
The Mr. and Mrs.
Familiar kisses
I have let all this slip away from me

We sat on the floor in his living room
With no furniture because he was moving to a new place
Because this one reminds him of me
And we made small talk for a little while
Then shit got heavy, and I started to cry
As he revealed things
I sat there immobile, I couldn't speak

Because the babies, the cars
And the house with the yard
And something old and new
Something borrowed and blue
The Mr. and Mrs.
Familiar kisses
Sunsets on the front steps at age eighty two
Oh what the hell am I to do?

He told me that he would have
Asked me to be his wife
On an Alaskan cruise we were to have taken
On next Valentine's Day

And now the babies, the cars
And the house with the yard
And the picket fence
The two-point-five fantasy
The Mr. and Mrs.
Familiar kisses
I have let all this slip away from me
Oh what the hell is wrong with me?
