Lyrics
I walked through the door and what did I find
A hat on the table but it wasn't mine
You rushed in and grabbed it and hid it from view
Then you stuttered as you held it, you said "This is for you"
So I said, thanks for the hat, it's really quite nice
But it was tattered and torn and not the right size
You said, "It's a gift", but I paid the price
Thanks for the hat, but it's not the right size
In the back of the closet there's piles of shoes
And I found a pair of I don't know who's
You smiled when I asked you if you could explain
You said, "They were a surprise, but now that's down the drain"
So I said, thanks for the shoes, they're really quite nice
But they were tattered and torn and not the right size
You said, "They're a gift", but I paid the price
Thanks for the shoes, but they're not the right size
You gave me a coat that was weathered and worn
Seems nothing you give me fits anymore
I can't take what's left from some other man
Even your love is now second hand
So I've been discarded like yesterday's news
And somewhere there's a man wearing no hat and shoes
But he's got your love, I hope he wears it quite well
You can act like it's new, and I'll never tell
I'll just say Thanks for the love, it was really quite nice
But now it's tattered and torn and not the right size
It once was a gift, but I paid the price
Thanks for the love, but it's not the right size
