Old Boyfriends

Lyrics

Old boyfriends
 Lost in the pocket of your overcoat
 Like burned out light bulbs on a Ferris Wheel
 Old boyfriends
 
 You remember the kinds of cars they drove
 Parking in an orange grove
 He fell in love, you see
 With someone that I used to be
 
 Though I very seldom think of him
 Nevertheless sometimes a mannequin's
 Blue summer dress can make the window like a dream
 Ah, but now those dreams belong to someone else
 Now they talk in their sleep
 In a drawer where I keep all my
 Old boyfriends
 Remember when you were burning for them
 Why do you keep turning them into
 Old boyfriends?
 They look you up when they're in town
 To see if they can still burn you down
 He fell in love, you see
 With someone that I used to be
 ♪
 Though I very seldom think of him
 Nevertheless sometimes a mannequin's
 Blue summer dress can make the window like a dream
 Ah, but now those dreams belong to someone else
 Now they talk in their sleep
 In a drawer where I keep all my
 Old boyfriends
 ♪
 Turn up every time it rains
 
 Fall out of the pages in a magazine
 Old boyfriends
 Girls fill up the bars every spring
 Dark places for remembering
 Old boyfriends
 All my old boyfriends
 Old boyfriends
