Empty file
Cabinet
You never forget
You never come back the same
Each time you go up in flames
Each time you begin to blame
You never come back the same
Just a little bit more love
Oh, a little bit more love
Just a little bit more love
For me
Just a little bit more love
Oh, a little bit more love
But it's alright
Don't cry
My sweet
You were born
Unto me
I'm torn
Unto me
I'm worn
Unto me
Unworn
So I danced my dance
And I kissed your hands
And I took a chance
And we fell into a trance
Just a little bit more love
Oh, a little bit more love
Just a little bit more love
For me
Just a little bit more love
Oh, a little bit more love
But it's alright
Don't cry
It's alright
Don't cry
It's alright
Don't cry
My sweet
Say one, two, three
One, two, three
One, two, three
You sitting on the rooftop
Me begging here on my knees
I stayed in love with you
You're just falling in love with me
And darling, you know that ain't right
So if love never lasts forever ever, ever
Little brother
Little lover
Twist these strings of fate
There is no clean slate
So I'm carting away
All of myself
In this metal crate
And my dog and my pony
And my empty file cabinet
You never forget
You never come back quite the same
Each time you go up in flames
Each time you begin to blame
You never come back quite the same
Just a little bit of true love
Oh, a little bit of true love
Just a little bit of true love
For me
Just a little bit more love
Oh, a little bit more love
But it's alright
Don't cry
It's alright
Don't cry
It's alright
Don't cry
My sweet
