For Years

(Harley Allen/Stacey Earle) There's a white mark on my hand Where I wore our wedding band Had to force myself to lay it down So I put it in my drawer Just can't wear that ring no more I've carried it around for years There's a picture that I've had In my wallet hid in back The one I like the best of me and you Gonna take it out today And make myself throw it away I've carried it around for years Clean the shelves and sweep the floors Hide things in the back of drawers Take down the curtains that you made Birthday cards and valentines Everything you ever signed Take 'em all and throw 'em all away Clean the shelves and sweep the floors Hide things in the back of drawers Take down the curtains that you made But some things you can't put down Like the way I love you sounds I'll carry that around for years There's some things you can't put down Like the way I love you sounds I'll carry that around for years
