lyrics

Well he sets cigarette, cigarette on the window sill
even still, the ash all collects and stains there
he does it every morning

While the pets pirouette, pirouette 'round the table legs
table legs, eyeing them eggs and oranges
praying he'd take pity

'Cause babe, he cursed the afternoon
far away from you, far away from you
oh...

So regrets are regrets, that's what she tells him
breath after breath, just a reminder that we
should've seen it coming

'Cause babe, he cursed the afternoon
far away from you, far away from you
And babe, he cursed the afternoon
far away from you, far away from you
oh...

Don't go back to him
(if you go)
don't go back to him
(if you go)
don't go back to him
(if you go)
don't go back to him
