Extra Chest of Drawers Lyrics

Going through the extra chest of drawers

The one with all the keepsakes that never found a home

A box to go to Goodwill and a box to put on the truck

I stumble on the pictures from my twenty-first

The light exposure never seemed to be quite right

The photos in the album staring back at me

And all at once, they say

Oh, won't you keep me

Keep me with you

Don't you leave me behind

Oh, won't you hold me

Hold me near you

Don't you say goodbye

Don't you say goodbye

Those countertop appliances we only used once

Like the waffle-maker that I finally let you buy

The date night that we had at home

The mess it made, the perfect song

The cooking and the cleaning and the laughing, they say

Oh, won't you keep me

Keep me with you

Don't you leave me behind

Oh, won't you hold me

Hold me near you

Don't you say goodbye

Don't you say goodbye

Don't you say goodbye

Oh, won't you keep me

Keep me with you

Don't you leave me behind

Oh, won't you hold me

Hold me near you

Don't you say goodbye

Don't you say goodbye

Don't you say goodbye
