Cardboard sign says yard sale
Real estate sign says sold
Family picnic table holds all that it can hold
Holds all that it can hold
On the grass and on the sidewalk
Well there must be half the town
Ain't it funny how a broken home
Can bring the prices down

(CHORUS)

Oh they're sortin through 
What's left of you and me
Paying yard sale prices 
For each golden memory
Oh I never thought 
I'd ever live to see
The way they're sorting through
What's left you and me

You left two summer dresses
In the backyard on the line
A lady just brought them to me 
Says she thinks they'll fit just fine
Well there goes the baby's windup
And the mirror from the hall
I'd better take just one last look
Before they take it all

CHORUS

Well i wonder what you'd say 
If you could see 
The way they're sorting through
What's left of you and me
