Diggin' Up Bones

(album: Storms Of Life - 1986)

[Verse 1:]
Last night I dug your picture out from my old dresser drawer
I set it on the table and I talked to it 'til four
I read some old love letters right up 'til the break of dawn
Yeah I've been sitting alone digging up bones

[Verse 2:]
Then I went through the jewelry and I found our wedding rings
I put mine on my finger and I gave yours a fling
Across this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home
Yeah tonight I'm sitting alone digging up bones

[Chorus:]
I'm digging up bones, I'm digging up bones
Exhuming things that's better left alone
I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone
Yeah tonight I'm sitting alone digging up bones

[Verse 3:]
And I went through the closet and I found some things in there
Like that pretty negligee that I bought you to wear
And I recall how good you looked each time you had it on
Yeah tonight I'm sitting alone digging up bones

[Chorus]

I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone
Yeah tonight I'm sitting alone digging up bones

[Chorus 'til end]
