Wright Chely Miscellaneous back of the bottom drawer In the back of the bottom drawer Of the dresser by our bed Is a box of odds and ends that I have always kept But the man who sleeps beside me Doesnt know its even there Little pieces of my past That I shouldnt have to share A napkin that is stained with time Has a poem on it that didnt quite rhyme, but it made me cry In a 'Dear Jane' letter from a different guy He broke up with me and he told me Im not always right And a stolen key from an old hotel room door In the back of the bottom drawer I dont keep these things 'cause Im longing to go back I keep them because I want to stay right where Im at Im reminded of my rights and wrongs I dont want to mess this up But I wouldnt know where I belong Without this box of stuff A birthday card from my first boyfriend He signed it 'I love you' so I gave in Yeah, we went too far in his daddys car And those Mardi Gras beads from '98 We danced all night, stayed out so late We thought we were stars, closing down the bars That champagne was cheap but still Ive got that cork In the back of the bottom drawer Im not trying to hide these things from the man I love today But Im a better woman for him, thanks to my yesterdays So now I try to give more than I take And I bite my tongue, fight the urge to say its my way Or no way at all And now I cherish love a whole lot more 'Cause of whats In the back of the bottom drawer |
