Diggin' Up Bones
Resurrecting Memories: Diggin' Up the Past in Love's Remains
Lyrics
Last night I dug your picture out from our old dresser drawer
Last night, I retrieved your picture from our old dresser drawer.
I set it on the table and I talked to it till four
I placed the picture on the table and engaged in a conversation with it until four in the morning.
I read some old love letters right up to the break of dawn
I read some old love letters until the dawn.
Yeah, I've been sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
I have been sitting alone, reflecting on the past and reminiscing.
Then I went through the jewelry and I found our wedding rings
I examined the jewelry and discovered our wedding rings.
I put mine on my finger and I gave yours a fling
I wore my ring and tossed yours across our now empty bedroom in our recently broken home.
Across this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home
Describing the current state of the bedroom after the separation.
Yeah, tonight I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
Tonight, I am alone, dwelling on the past.
I'm diggin' up bones, I'm diggin' up bones,
I am revisiting and bringing to the surface memories that are better left undisturbed.
Exhuming things that's better left alone
The act of uncovering and resurrecting memories of a love that has ended.
And I'm resurrecting mem'ries of a love that's dead and gone
Reflecting on the past love that is no longer present.
Yeah, tonight I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
Despite the pain, tonight I am sitting alone, delving into memories.
And I went through the closet and I found some things in there,
I explored the closet and found items, such as the lingerie I bought for you.
Like that pretty lingerie that I bought you to wear
Recalling how you looked when you wore that lingerie.
And I recalled how good you looked each time you had it on
Reflecting on past moments and appearances.
Yeah, tonight I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
Once again, I am sitting alone, revisiting memories.
I'm diggin' up bones, I'm diggin' up bones,
I am actively bringing up and revisiting memories, despite the emotional challenge.
Exhuming things that's better left alone
The process of exhuming memories that are best left undisturbed.
And I'm resurrecting mem'ries of a love that's dead and gone
Resurrecting memories of a love that has ended and is no longer present.
Yeah, tonight I'm sittin' alone, diggin' up bones
Despite the emotional difficulty, tonight I am sitting alone, delving into memories of the past love.
