Wrapped Up in Ribbon
Still got the broken chain, on the mirror hangin'
From that "take me back honey I'm a different man" bracelet
Every time I see it shimmer, boy all I can remember
Are the nights you came home wasted
Still finding beads in the strangest places
You had the date engraved in that picture frame
Now it's just collecting dust above the mantle place
Wish I could tell that girl 'bout everything I know now
Don't go falling for that diamond ring
Oh 'cause, money can't buy everything
Ooh I'm sorry don't mean what it used to
You can't take what you shattered, and make it brand new
Put pretty paper on it, top it with a bow
Act like you love me but we both know
This ain't a real apology that you're giving
It's just pain wrapped up in ribbon
Name-brand dress in a color that I don't like
And you know I can't walk in heels that high
Love to dress me up just to show me off
But it's only a matter of time
Til a little something better finds you wandering eye
Behind every gold thread
Behind every gift
It's just another mistake you're trying to erase
With a temporary fix
Ooh I'm sorry don't mean what it used to
You can't take what you shattered, and make it brand new
Put pretty paper on it, top it with a bow
Act like you love me but we both know
This ain't a real apology that you're giving
It's just pain wrapped up in ribbon
From that "take me back honey I'm a different man" bracelet
Every time I see it shimmer, boy all I can remember
Are the nights you came home wasted
Still finding beads in the strangest places
You had the date engraved in that picture frame
Now it's just collecting dust above the mantle place
Wish I could tell that girl 'bout everything I know now
Don't go falling for that diamond ring
Oh 'cause, money can't buy everything
Ooh I'm sorry don't mean what it used to
You can't take what you shattered, and make it brand new
Put pretty paper on it, top it with a bow
Act like you love me but we both know
This ain't a real apology that you're giving
It's just pain wrapped up in ribbon
Name-brand dress in a color that I don't like
And you know I can't walk in heels that high
Love to dress me up just to show me off
But it's only a matter of time
Til a little something better finds you wandering eye
Behind every gold thread
Behind every gift
It's just another mistake you're trying to erase
With a temporary fix
Ooh I'm sorry don't mean what it used to
You can't take what you shattered, and make it brand new
Put pretty paper on it, top it with a bow
Act like you love me but we both know
This ain't a real apology that you're giving
It's just pain wrapped up in ribbon
