Since You Went Away 가사

You said you couldn't tell the doormat from my face You said if I had brains I would pawn them Could be I've finally gotten up off of my thumbs Could be that you're the one that was on them Cause the plants have grown The dog came home The bills are all getting paid Things are much better since you went away And I've changed my looks I read new books I've got friends that mean what they say Things are much better since you went away You said without your help I couldn't tie my shoes You said without a doubt I'd be stranded Could be that you were right and you had to fly the coop Could be the eagle finally has landed Cause the plants have grown The dog came home The bills are all getting paid Things are much better since you went away And I've changed my looks I read new books I've got friends that mean what they say Things are much better since you went away When I was younger I was told without another I'd be incomplete and deflated My chosen one has chosen to befriend another And to my surprise - I'm elated! Cause the plants have grown The dog came home The bills are all getting paid Things are much better since you went away And I've changed my looks I read new books I've got friends that mean what they say Things are much better since you went away
