TV Girl - Taking What's Not Yours lyrics
[TV Girl - Taking What's Not Yours lyrics]
That's thievin', stealin'
Takin' what's not yours
I don't really know if she cares or not
All I know is she left a lot of
Stuff in my apartment
She's never getting back
And as her smell on my pillow fades
Her cigarettes might stay
Like a Roman Coliseum
A dry and worthless monument to our love
I still have your lighter
I still have your book
I still have everything you brought
But you never took you know where to find me
And I know where to look (I'm not a crook)
Thievin', stealin', takin' what's not yours
That's thievin', stealin'
Takin' what's not yours
And I don't really know if she knows or not
But I left some things in her jewelry box
And she's wearing down my rings
Taking the compliments meant for me
And although I think I'll miss them
At least there's proof of my existence
A captive little soldier on her fingers
Deep behind enemy lines
I still have your lighter
I still have your book
I still have everything you brought
But you never took you know where to find me
And I know where to look
(I'm not a crook)
Thievin', stealin', takin' what's not yours
That's thievin', stealin'
Takin' what's not yours
A copy of Gravity's Rainbow that
She probably didn't read
How about my Laura Nyro record she
Probably threw away when she moved
How about the half box of lentils when I
Cooked her food that she probably didn't use
I wanna dedicate this jam
To all those things I left behind in girls'
Apartments and various domiciles
Over the years
Sometimes you gotta leave in a hurry man
What can I say
Except I didn't forget about any of it
I'm taking it all back
