[00:00:00] Back of The Bottom Drawer - Chely Wright

[00:00:01] Written by：Chely Wright/Liz Rose

[00:00:14] In the back of the bottom drawer

[00:00:18] Of the dresser by our bed

[00:00:21] Is a box of odds and ends

[00:00:24] That I have always kept

[00:00:28] But the man who sleeps beside me

[00:00:32] Doesn't know it's even there

[00:00:35] Little pieces from my past

[00:00:39] That I shouldn't have to share

[00:00:43] A napkin that is stained with time

[00:00:46] Has a poem on it

[00:00:48] That didn't quite rhyme

[00:00:50] But it made me cry

[00:00:57] In a dear jane letter

[00:00:58] From a different guy

[00:01:00] He broke up with me

[00:01:02] And he told me I'm not always right

[00:01:11] And a stolen key

[00:01:13] From an old hotel room door

[00:01:18] In the back

[00:01:21] Of the bottom drawer

[00:01:26] I don't keep these things

[00:01:29] 'Cause I'm longing to go back

[00:01:33] I keep them because I wanna stay

[00:01:36] Right where I'm at

[00:01:40] I'm reminded of my rights and wrongs

[00:01:44] I don't wanna mess this up

[00:01:47] But I wouldn't know where I belong

[00:01:51] Without this box of stuff

[00:01:54] A birthday card from my first boyfriend

[00:01:57] He signed it I love you so I gave in

[00:02:02] Yeah we went too far in his daddy's car

[00:02:08] And those mardi gras beads from '98

[00:02:12] We danced all night stayed out so late

[00:02:16] We thought we were stars

[00:02:19] Closing down the bars

[00:02:22] That champagne was cheap

[00:02:25] But still I've got that cork

[00:02:30] In the back

[00:02:33] Of the bottom drawer

[00:02:38] I'm not trying to hide these things

[00:02:41] From the man I love today

[00:02:44] But I'm a better woman for him

[00:02:48] Thanks to my yesterday

[00:02:51] So now I try to give more than I take

[00:02:55] And I bite my tongue

[00:02:57] Fight the urge to say

[00:02:59] 'It's my way or no way at all'

[00:03:06] And now I cherish love a whole lot more

[00:03:13] 'Cause of what's

[00:03:15] In the back of the bottom drawer
