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
This discontented 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
