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) 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 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
