Lipstick on the Cup Lyrics

It's funny the little things you remember

Like that lipstick on a cup

I never thought twice back then, no

Why didn't you wipe it off?

I used to laugh when you'd ask for more time

And I'd shrug it off, say it's fine

You'd smile, but I didn't see

That all you wanted was a little piece of me

Now I'm here, lost in the mess I made

Couldn't see the small stuff that fades

You were the one, and I let you go

Now I'm stuck in the places I don't wanna know

Those fights over nothing, those words we threw

The silence I gave, it ate at you

Now that it's gone, I can't forget

All the things I missed, I still regret

I'd just walk on by, never gave a damn

But now it's the stuff that haunts me

I wish I'd done things right

Told you I was sorry, or even tried

Now I'm here, lost in the mess I made

Couldn't see the small stuff that fades

You were the one, and I let you go

Now I'm stuck in the places I don't wanna know

I didn't wipe that cup, didn't make it right

Now I'm staring at the shadows of our last fight

You'd laugh, say"it's no big deal"

But we both knew it wasn't real

I should've cared, should've tried to show

That the little things add up, you know

Now I'm here, lost in the mess I made

Couldn't see the small stuff that fades

You were the one, and I let you go

Now I'm stuck in the places I don't wanna know

Now I'm just staring at the cup with your mark

Wondering where you went and where I went wrong

I'll never forget the things I didn't see

The little things that should've mattered to me

I should've cared, should've tried to show

That the little things add up, you know

I'd just walk on by, never gave a damn

But now it's the stuff that haunts me, damn

I wish I'd done things right

Told you I was sorry, or even tried

I was too proud, too cold, too blind

To see the little things I left behind
