Old Sweater Songtext
von Ilse DeLange

Put me away in a closet somewhere
Maybe ′til next winter comes
Then when you're cold, and you′re needing someone
You can wear me for comfort, dear

But now that you're flying, and I am old news
There's so many new things to try
A list full of friends you can call anytime
There′s no need to have me around
I′m just an old sweater in a dark closet now


Oh-oh-oh, why did you love me?
Why did you care?
Oh-oh-oh, do you understand
How we ended up here?
Oh-oh-oh, was it worth it all?
Went so fast, what it was disappeared
Went so fast, what it was disappeared

I told you, "I miss you" some thousands of times
I feel like I did way back when
When you were the only one I ever found
Who felt like a long-needed friend

But that is old news, and you have moved on
You say that I shouldn't complain
You want things to be easy and quiet right now
And I am the stain that remains
I′m just an old sweater that you liked yesterday


Oh-oh-oh, why did you love me?
Why did you care?
Oh-oh-oh, do you understand
How we ended up here?
Oh-oh-oh, was it worth it all?
Went so fast, what it was disappeared
Went so fast, what it was disappeared
