Lyrics

Old boyfriends
Lost in the pocket of your overcoat
Like burned out lite bulbs on a ferris wheel

Old boy friends
You remember the kinds of cars they drove
Parking in an orange grove
He fell in love you see
With someone that I used to be

Tho I very seldom think of him
Nevertheless sometimes a mannequin's
Blue satin dress can make the window
Like a dream
Ah but now those dreams belong to someone else
Now they talk endlessly
In a drawer where I keep
All my

Old boyfriends
Remember when you were burning for them?
Why do you keep turning them into
Old boyfriends?
They look you up when they're in town
To see if they can still burn you down
You fell in love you see
With someone that I used to be

Old boyfriends
Turn up every time it rains
Fall out of the pages in a magazine
Old boyfriends
Girls fill up the bars every spring
Not places for remembering
Old boyfriends
All my old boyfriends
Old boyfriends
