And a stolen key from an old hotel room door
I'm reminded of my rights and wrongs
A napkin that is stained with time
But still I've got that cork
So now I try to give more than I take
We danced all night stayed out so late
But the man who sleeps beside me doesn't know its even there
But I'm a better woman for him thanks to my yesterdays
And I bite my tongue, fight the urge to say
Has a poem on it that didn't quiet rhyme but it made me cry
And a dear Jane letter from a different guy
He signed it I love you so I gave in
But I wouldn't know where I belong with out this box of stuff
He broke up with me and he told me I'm not always right
It's my way or no way at all
Yeah we went to far in his daddy's car
I keep them because I want to stay right were I'm at
Little pieces of my past that I shouldn't have to share
I don't keep these things because I'm longing to go back
And now I cherish love a whole lot more
In the back of the bottom drawer
I don't want to mess this up
In the back of the bottom drawer
And that champagne was cheap
I'm not trying to hide these things from the man I love today
And those Mardi grass beads from '98
A birthday card from my first boyfriend
We thought we were stars closing down the bars
