Heart Shaped Locket

I'm alone for the week so I'll go for a walk

Past community libraries and people with gardens

Planting roots and pulling up their weeds

Feeling tied the past, water towers on hills

Sneaking up to the top when we had time to kill

We always wondered if Carole still loves Bill

Carry all my old friends

In a heart-shaped locket

Keep em tied around my neck

Even though they hold me back and

I'm blowing kisses

Driving down dead ends

Keep your photo on the fridge

Knowing I won't talk to you again

Counting minutes and hours, till I'm fully obsessed

Never have enough time for my scarcity complex

Every moment feels gone before it leaves me

Purple houses, no one's home

Fancy parties, empty hosts

Walking home in the pouring rain

Cowboy boots made me miss my train

Carry all my old friends

In a heart-shaped locket

Keep em tied around my neck

Even though they hold me back, and

I'm blowing kisses

Like I'm not haunted

Every moment that I miss

Even ones I wish I could forget

Carry all my old friends

In a heart-shaped locket

Keep em tied around my neck

Even though they hold me back, and

Tying up my loose ends

Into perfect ribbons

Growing older is a gift

Letting go is just a part of it

The hard part is that time, it passes

The best part is that time, it passes

The hard part is it never lasts

But the best part is just that you had it

The hard part is it never lasts

But the best part is just that you had it
