lyrics SS music/vocals Ai
[verse 1]
I got the message on the phone, when I got in,
come round to hers, she said that she was off.
When I got there, my stuff was on the lawn, or in the bin
She left me everything she owned, except her love
[chorus]
She went away, without a word
I ain't sayin' it doesn't hurt
She's gone and I've had enough
Left me everything I gave, except her love
[verse 2]
The landlord, opened an icebox, and handed me a beer,
He said, "you're better off she's gone, when push comes to shove"
"You're not the only guy at night, who's been coming around here"
It seemed, she was giving everything to everyone, except her love
[chorus]
She went away, without a word
I ain't sayin' it doesn't hurt
She's gone and I've had enough
Left me everything I gave, except her love
[verse 3]
I don't recall a thing, of that drive from hers to mine,
coming to terms with her betrayal, cut me kinda rough.
A month later I got a message, from the clinic to go on in,
It seems she left me something, more than just her love.
[chorus]
She went away, without a word,
I ain't sayin' it doesn't hurt.
She's gone and I've had enough,
Left me everything I gave, except her love.
[bridge]
Sometimes you think you know,
then you know nothing at all.
You thought you'd see it comin'
that pride before a fall.
[chorus]
She went away, without a word,
I ain't sayin' it doesn't hurt.
She's gone and I've had enough,
Left me everything I gave, except her love.
outro
She's gone and I've had enough,
Left me everything I gave, except her love.

Well there's a caution to us all!
I like that chorus. Would love to hear a pause before the last line though.
The down to earth, conversational style is definitely a strong fit for this one.
Good stuff.

@sidshovel great lyric. Don't wanna know what she gave you in the way of the medical clinic calling you in and I'm glad you left that part open to imagination. Pretty song tho' I would've imagined it to be a grittier tune. But it's not my tune, but yours.
Keep 'em comin', Cowboy!
