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