My Songs

Left of Us

Verse

The day after you said goodbye

All I did was lay in bed and cry

My friends tell me, "why are you wasting time on your wasted crying?"

I don't know why

But I can't help wondering

But none of us has an answer

Pre

I'm holding on to what it is left of us

But Darlin I know we're far from over

But can you give me tonight

To try and make this right

Chorus

I know you're saying you don't wanna hurt me

Well, maybe you should show a little mercy

I know you by heart, and you don't even know where I start

I can't say hello to you and risk another goodbye

But I want to hold on a little longer to what's left of us

Verse

Cause you make me wanna be stronger than I am

Maybe I'm reaching

Misplacing a feeling

There's no way to know but to try

I know there's nothing I can do to change it

But is it something that can be negotiated?

My heart's already breaking, baby, go ahead and twist the knife

Pre

I'm holding on to what it is left of us

But Darlin I know we're far from over

But can you give me tonight

To try and make this right

Chorus

I know you're saying you don't wanna hurt me

Well, maybe you should show a little mercy

I know you by heart, and you don't even know where I start

I can't say hello to you and risk another goodbye

But I want to hold on a little longer to what's left of us

Bridge

Are you doing the same?

Are the tears rolling down?

Do you just wanna forget and leave this town?

Are you feeling any shame?

Are you feeling anything? 

Chorus

I know you're saying you don't wanna hurt me

Well, maybe you should show a little mercy

I know you by heart, and you don't even know where I start

I can't say hello to you and risk another goodbye

But I want to hold on a little longer to what's left of us
