lyrics

He got married finally, after a lifetime of sadness
To the moon and the stars he said his farewells
Remember how back in the day I'd buy your lines
On how inside every real goodbye
There is always a returning

So I don't plan to stay in touch
The best of it was not enough
Too cool, unkind, or unimpressed
Always left me feeling underdressed
You get tired of nothing ever working

So I'm hanging out on the line to dry
Ain't it just like it used to be
For poor Venus and Mars
Still too soon to tell
I heard that he got married finally
After a lifetime of badness
In a love letter that said only 'oh well'

And it's all very fine to step away
No skin off mine if you needed change
Save that stitch in time for another day
And never look back, nothing to gain
Fight so hard to end up with next to nothing

Don't think of me
Old tattered seams
Need permanent pressing
Or partial reprieve
And baby, don't you wanna do
My laundry?
