| Thirty big brown boxes lined up by the door
|
| Thirty years of my life that you can’t claim no more
|
| So now you watch them tumble down
|
| Your pretty house of cards
|
| This is my repossession, possession of my heart
|
| You say that I threw it all away for nothing
|
| You carry on and say I’m just a fool
|
| You say, in a month or two, I’ll call you crying
|
| Well, don’t hold your breath, the phone won’t ring for you
|
| I’m through with the endless fights and restless nights beside you
|
| I’m keeping love inside my heart for someone new
|
| And you say that I threw it all away for nothing
|
| But the only thing I threw away was you
|
| Ooh, ooh
|
| Ooh, ooh
|
| I’m through with the sleepless nights, the pain, and all the sorrow
|
| I’m keeping the love inside my heart for someone new
|
| And you say that I threw it all away for nothing
|
| But the only thing I threw away was you
|
| Oh, the only thing I threw away was you |
