lyrics

I was your little
Music box baby
I’d wait for you to wind me up
Cause I thought you could save me

But you closed my lid and you tucked me away
Cause you knew I’d still sing for you on your rainiest days
And I’ve grown so accustomed to whistling your tune
My throat closes up when I try to sing something new
And it’s not that I lost you, it’s that you never were mine
And I’m mourning the fact that I thought we had time

I was your little
Joke of a music box
You hoarded and hid me
And picked all my locks

And yet I still spun for you, danced, smiled, and sang
I was your sunshine on your rainiest days
And I’ve grown so accustomed to whistling your tune
I might just give up on singing something new
So I sit here and wonder in my small velvet bed
About all the heartbreaking songs that I might have learned instead

I was your little
Music Box, Baby
