I did the laundry, I cleaned the kitchen.
Swept up the pieces, of those broken dishes. 
I drank my coffee, while yours got colder.
All while you were, hungover.

I put on lipstick, I planted roses.
Painted the bathroom, but you never noticed.
I felt the first chill, of October
All while you were, hungover.

Baby your head ain't the only thing hurting you know
The sun keeps coming up,
Even if the curtains are closed.
The girl in the mirror, I got to know her 
All while you were, hungover. 

I got a new job, I gave up smoking.

Changed my lipstick, and those roses opened.
I let my hair grow, down past my shoulders.
All while you were, hungover.

Baby your head ain't the only thing hurting you know
The sun keeps coming up,
Even if the curtains are closed.
Got a little bit stronger, got a little bit older.
All while you were, hungover

I left the laundry, those broken dishes.
Called my sister, bought a ticket.
I got a good start, on startin' over
All while you were, hungover
