...because the man you were
wasn't enough to make me stay ;)



there's an evening dress in the closet
with a red wine stain on the sleeve
your pillow's still on the bed
where we used to sleep

and in the dresser drawer
there's a couple more things
that smell like your perfume
but other than that there ain't much left of lovin you

and all i got is a big broken heart
and memories i can't drink away
just because the man i was
wasn't enough to make you stay
the heaven we had
the hell that i'm going through
but other than that there ain't much left of lovin you

flowers that you planted
on either side of the steps out front
before they bloom i think i might dig them up
and that old porch swing
those songs you sang
and the cold and bitter truth
but other than that there ain't much left of lovin you

and all i got is a big broken heart
and memories i can't drink away
just because the man i was
wasn't enough to make you stay
the heaven we had
the hell that i'm going through
but other than that there ain't much left of lovin you

the heaven we had
the hell that i'm going through
but other than that there ain't much left

the heaven we had
the hell that i'm going through
but other than that there ain't much left of lovin you
