Verse 1:
I don't need another long talk
about what's wrong with you and me
And I don't need another conversation
about the way we're supposed to be
Now I see that you're gone
and I don't believe after everything
I have to get over you
Pre-chorus:
How could you make me love you and then just walk away
Like you never did a thing to lead me on in any kind of way
How could you make me feel so helpless every day
From the path you laid before me
These are things I collected along the way
Chorus:
I got tears in my eyes sometimes and I got a bad case of sleep less nights
And I got holding you on my mind and I try to think of ways I can get you back all the time
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry every day
But these are things I collected along the way
Verse 2:
Everytime I think about it I hate it in every way
Said I thought I couldn't live without you
but I live with it every day
Never thought I'd see the day that you would ever leave
But now I'm here sifting through memories
Pre-chorus X1
Chorus:
I got tears in my ears sometimes and I got a bad case of sleep less nights
And I got holding you on my mind (holding you all the time)
And I try to think of ways I can get you back all the time (I gotta get you back in my life)
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry every day (that's a lot of weight to carry, lot of weight to carry)
(all the things I collected along the way)
Chorus:
I got tears in my ears sometimes and I got a bad case of sleep less nights (I don't think you know what I'm talkin' about)
And I got holding you on my mind (holding you all the time)
And I try to think of ways I can get you back all the time (I gotta get you off my mind)
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry every day (that's a lot of weigh, lot of weight to carry)
(These are things I collected along the way)
Instrumental bridge
Chorus:
I got tears in my ears sometimes {I cry} and I got a bad case of sleep less nights(I got a bad case)
And I got holding you on my mind (all I wanna do is hold you)
And I try to think of ways I can get you back all the time (all the time)
Oh baby, that's a lot of weight to carry every day (that's a lot of weight to carry everyday)
(these are things I collected along my journey)

Review about Things I Collected things I collected | Reviewer: Karey | 7/17/09
this song explains my situation perfectly i fell n love with him and basically he walked away leaving my heart aching with pain I feel that partially it is my fault because even knowing the type of man he was I continued to run back to him. Now as the person beneath me has said I am collecting myself as well as the pieces of my heart that he has broke. I pray that God will give me the strenth to move on and find a man who will help me find and put back together the pieces of my heart.
Women...rise to your destiny! | Reviewer: Thando | 2/8/08
This song, touches a lot of women who have suffered a lot, tormented emotionaly and bruised physically...have you really collected yourself from the one that did this to you? why do some go back to the hurt...ask yourself have you really collected yourself? Rise up to your destiny ladies and do your thing..no man can make the world go round for you , but you...
to believe again in hope. | Reviewer: Carol | 5/21/07
I Love it. It remind me that there is still women out there that understand how we feel.
I've listen to it over and over. Its how I feel inside.
I think this is the most mind refreshing song by Tamia I've ever heard!
