telly savalas - rubber bands and bits of string lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]

she used to save the darndest things
rubber bands and bits of string
the kitchen drawer still overflows
with birthday cards from long ago
this recipe for home+made pie
she never had the nerve to try
i should throw them all away
but not today

[verse 2]

matchbooks from our favourite place
this china doll with a broken face
and pickle bottles filled with plants
the cuckoo clock we bought in france
the memories i’ll never lose
a thousand things i’ll never use
i should throw them all away
but not today

[bridge]
in thе bedroom
there’s a touch of rosеs in the air
but when i turn to find her
she’s never there
it must have been the perfume
the one she used to wear
[verse 3]

house and garden magazines
and these half+filled jars of jelly beans
coney island souvenirs
a music box no+one hears
an umbrella broken in the hall
this pillow from niagara falls
they should be thrown away
but not today

[verse 4]

of all the things i thought she’d take
the bride and groom from the wedding cake
but i guess she didn’t really care
she left them there to sit and stare
like me, they have no tears to cry
just dreams grown old and left to die
she’ll be thrown away
but not today

[outro]

flowers on the sill
a long forgotten grocery bill
seash+lls from the jersey shore
a teapot from an antique store…
