Lyrics

Verse1
Since she’s been gone
A piece of my heart has just moved on
I can still see her fallen tears
I dream of her face
for hours on end I can’t replace
All of those wasted years
She stood in the door
and I just let her go….
Chorus
All that she had to give
and I just kept taking
All of her life to live
and I just kept walking away…
Verse2
Mornings she’d find
an empty pillow by her side
Not even a note to read
Why couldn’t I see
just what her love would mean to me
I guess I had my frail ego to feed
She just stood in the door
and I let her go away…
Chorus
All that she had to give
and I just kept taking
All of her life to live
and I just kept walking away…
Bridge
Jump back
Take a slap
Tell me where the hurtin’s at
right from the start
Heel, toe,
Take it slow
Tell her what she wants to know
Who needs a heart when you’re playing a part?
Break
Since she’s been gone
(Since she’s been gone)
Since she’s been gone
(Since she’s been gone)
Chorus
All that she had to give
and I just kept taking
All of her life to live
and I just kept walking away…
All that she had to give
and I just kept taking
All of my life to live
And she just kept walking away…
