Boxes Lyrics - Patty Griffin

Closed down the house now on this sad affair 

very last step of a thousand steps there 

and will we every reach the sky now I won't care 

He called me liar when I told him I loved him 

and I thought it was plain as the sky above him 

He called me a liar 

Yeah, he called me a liar 

And I got these boxes piled up on the lawn 

And I say to myself in a little while I'll be gone 

And he will just turn back into the house and go on 

And my car will drive away and turn into a song

He got the lampshade, I got the cat. 

Strange sensation, coming down to that 

Strange sensation, coming down to that ...baby 

He's got the four walls and I've got the sky of gray 

He said he'd like to get out of harm's way 

Ooooohhh 

Get out, baby 

And I got these boxes piled up on the lawn 

And I say to myself in a little while I'll be gone 

And he will just turn back into the house and go on 

And my car will drive away and turn into a song 

He wants me to understand and he wants me to say 

how I understand we'd be better off this way 

wants me to pack my things and he wants me to go 

but he sure does care about me, oh he wants me to know 

I got these boxes piled up on the lawn 

And I say to myself in a little while I'll be gone 

And he will just turn back into the house and go on 

And my car will drive away and turn into a song
