Expired Lover

I don't want you anymore
Summer's gone, and now I'm sure
The box behind my bed, I'd saved
I took out with the trash today

Oh, the truth is I've met someone new
The truth is you probably have too
The truth is I can't stand your face
When I think of all the love we made

Oh, we took a walk, we took a walk
Out by the hudson river
The humid breeze, you need to please
It made my shoulders shiver
You asked me "baby girl, how long
Until my heart recovers?"
I'm sure the answer's "never"

You're a top-act shelf, out-of-date
Too-late, expired lover

No, I'm not the only girl to save
Items past their expiration date
I sucked you up, 'till my stomach churned
My throat would close, my eyes would burn

Someone told me love was supposed to hurt
But, now I've learned

And I don't want this anymore
Like the hand-me-downs waitin' by my door
I kept you around, but I don't know what for

So I took a walk all by myself
From river side to south street
It's 2 a.m, I've let you in
And whenever you're here, I can't sleep
Is there anyway to save you and me?
Baby, now that I've discovered
Enjoy takin' all my covers
This is your last sleep over

You're a top-act shelf, out-of-date
Too-late, expired lover

You're a top-act shelf, out-of-date
Too-late, expired lover
