Spilled Milk

Liner Notes

Another I-am-not-over-my-ex song! (I personally am actually over my ex, but these songs are fun to write, y'know?)

The theme was "Idiom", so I thought of random idioms I could use...
"Don't cry over spilled milk" was fun, because what if... the character in the song wanted to cry anyway?

Lyrics

Verse:
Came across a photo of you
oh, how time flies
woman in a white silk dress
you in suit and tie

it felt like yesterday
when we were quite a pair
and it feels so bittersweet
seeing you, standing there

Chorus:
I’m crying in my kitchen over spilled milk
over the what-if-it-was-me wearing that white silk dress
oh, I’m a mess, there’s this weight on my chest
I’ll cry it out my system

Verse:
I take a kitchen rag
and wipe a spill off the counter and
I wonder if she’s neater than me
I just wish you’re happy now

Chorus:
I’m crying in my kitchen over spilled milk
over the what-if-it-was-me wearing that white silk dress
oh, I’m a mess, there’s this weight on my chest
I’ll cry it out my system

Bridge:
I know, I’m crying over spilled milk
this empty glass
hole in my heart is unfilled
I know, I’m crying over spilled milk
I’m glad
you’re so happy and fulfilled

Chorus:
I’m crying in my kitchen over spilled milk
over the what-if-it-was-me wearing that white silk dress
oh, I’m a mess, there’s this weight on my chest
I’ll cry it out my system
