Amy Millan - Old Perfume Lyrics

I've been feelin' sick all day
Wish I'd asked you to stay
'Cause I need a little takin' care of

Maybe you didn' know
I didn't want you to go
But who do I say it to now, though?

You're like an old perfume
That brings back memories
That old, forgotten tune
That I now recall

I've been wrongly turned away
You say you're meant for someone other
Than this contented pearl

Floating at the shoreline
The water's dark and cool
Under the shadow of a girl

I wish I could have said
All that was in my head
Now darlin', you will never know
That I loved you so

You're like an old perfume
That brings back memories
That old, forgotten tune
That I now recall

I wish I could have said
All that was in my head
Now darlin', you will never know
That I loved you so
