A ukulele song for his deaf ears


I Have Your Sweater
by Yours Truly

Farewell, so long
You slipped right out of my hands
I was hanging on for too long
'Bout time I changed my plans

I dove right into your charm
I love the way you kissed my neck
Thought we were written in the stars
So I hope you'll never forget

Oh, when you throw me out, you pull me in
Your foolish games I cannot win
So while you're living life all alone 
I promise I'll be moving on 

Seemed like I was in luck
You said you'd never lead me astray
Confessed your love while you were drunk
Guess I mistook it for honesty

Now I'm cleaning up your mess
I'll probably forget in time
And if I wished you the best
That would be a boldface lie

Oh, when you throw me out, you pull me in
Your foolish games I cannot win
So while you're living life all alone
I promise I'll be moving on

Your bullshit smelled like a flowerbed 
You winked at me and I lost my head
If I'd known that you were untrue
I'd still have fallen in love with you

Rebuild that bridge that you burned 
If you ever want your sweater again
But it won't keep you as warm
As the love that you didn't let in


Oh, when you throw me out, you pull me in
Your foolish games I cannot win
So while you're living life all alone
I promise I'll be moving on
