Lyrics: Better Stay Gone

I’ve got some shirts of yours
I got a suit that used to belong to you
I oughta throw them out
Call the Salvation Army
Give em to someone who can really use em

But you might come back
The door’s not broken
If you change your mind
Mine’s still open
You’ll need something to wear
To take me out to dinner
Cause we’re gonna wanna celebrate
We’ll drink champagne
I just can’t wait

But then again, the last time that you moved on
I cried from dusk til dawn
On second thought
I guess you better stay gone

I got some news today
A little bird told me
She’d seen you around
I got all hot and flustered
I dusted off your picture
Dug up my diaphragm and checked it for holes

Because you might come back
You’re hearts still beating
What was good before
Can bear repeating
I’ve got candles lit
The bathtub’s overflowing
Cause you know you like to take a bath
Shampoo my hair and make me laugh

But then again, the last time that you moved on
I felt so stepped upon
On second thought
I guess you’d better stay gone

Because you might come back
The bell still buzzes
If you’ve got some doubts
What could be was
Is there a song you’d like
Some record in the player
Cause we’re gonna want to sing and dance
And give romance another chance

But then again the last time that you moved on
Love left my lexicon
On second thought
I guess you’d better stay gone
