The Suitcase Song Songtext
von Sam & Ruby

I am a suitcase
I am locked tight with all these things I could not replace
If I were lost tonight
I roll ′round airports
I talk with seats until it's time to leave the concourse
You hangin′ on to me

Remember when I fell down the stairs
When you were rushin' down that long flight of concrete squares?
You brushed my dirt off
And checked to see if you had hurt me more than you thought
But how hurt could I be?

And I'll carry on ′cause I don′t know how else to be
I will stay here with you until you've had your fill of me
And when you′re gone, I know it won't be for too long
I am yours and you are mine
Because you know that I am strong


I keep your secrets
The one who knows about your life and all you regret
When you′re alone
Your kids don't like me
They see me on your bed and they try to hide me
They think you love me best

But I′ll carry on 'cause I don't know how else to be
I will stay here with you until you′ve had your fill of me
And when you′re gone, I know it won't be for too long
I am yours and you are mine
Because you know that I am strong

I′ll carry on 'cause I don′t know how else to be
I will stay here with you until you've had your fill of me
And when you′re gone, I know it won't be for too long
I am yours and you are mine
Because you know
That I'll carry on ′cause I don′t know what else to do
I will be here for you now because I know I'm home for you
The day will come and you′ll decide you need a change
But until I'm on the shelf, we will be one and the same
One and the same
