美國實力歌姬［狄昂．華薇克］──流行／靈魂／抒情曲──［Odds And Ends／零碎物件］

Your pillow wasnt slept upon

Your closet was empty, too

All of your shirts and ties were gone

There wasnt a trace of you

How could you go and leave so completely?

Nothing was left of all the memories that we used to share

Just an empty tube of toothpaste

And a half-filled cup of coffee

Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair

At least you could have said goodbye

You shouldnt have to run away

Were you afraid that I would cry?

My tears might have made you stay

Gone are the dreams that kept us together

Nothing was left to show that we were once so happy then

Just an empty tube of toothpaste

And a half-filled cup of coffee

Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair

How could you go and leave so completely?

Nothing was left of all the memories that we used to share

Just an empty tube of toothpaste

And a half-filled cup of coffee

Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair

Odds and ends of a beautiful love affair
