Closing This Memory Down

(album: Something Worth Leaving Behind - 2002)

The phone rang... I said, "Hello."
He said, "Can we talk baby?"
And I said, "Darling I'm closed for the night."
And he said, "Well, I saw a light."
Yeah, but there's nobody home
I think you're looking for someone or something
That's either missing or gone

[Chorus:]
And I think it's time I hung a sign in the window
'Cause I'm tired, I'm so tired of my heart going broke
I'm going out of business
There's no need for you to come around
'Cause I'm closing this memory down
I'm closing this memory down
And then there was silence
You know...like there always is
When one doesn't understand
The other has nothing left to give tonight
Let it be closing time
I can't go on living like this
I think you're looking for someone or something
That's either missing or I just can't help you with
[Repeat Chorus]

You don't know how hard love worked
But just how badly love hurt to fail
The phone rang...I said, "Hello."
He said, "Can we talk baby?"
And I said, "Darling I'm closing this memory down."
I'm closing this memory down
