Boxes on the Lawn Patty Griffin

Closed down the house now on this sad affair
Very last step of a thousand steps there
And will we ever 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
