Old Blue Carpet Lyrics & Chords By Jill Barber

There's a stain on my carpet where you spilled your beer
I would hate to think all that's left of you is lying right here
But I haven't heard from you
And this is all you left behind
Just a stain on my carpet
That will fade away in time

So tell me what's out west
Are you on the coast
Are smoking the best?

There's a stain on my perfect image of you
I never pegged you for the type who wouldn't think to write a letter or two
And every morning I check for mail that may have come my way
But I've given up on that now I check it every other day

And truth is I never really got to know you anyway
Just enough time to fall for you in a way

You must have some kind of news you can send
Don't have to write me as a lover
Just as a friend

And there's a stain on my carpet where you spilled your beer
I would hate to think all that's left of you is lying right here
But I haven't heard from you
And this is all you left behind
Just a stain on my carpet
And me with you on my mind
With you on my mind
