Nothing Left to Take

Lyrics

In the first thirty seconds
 She told him she was leaving
 She picked up the one-way suitcase
 He stood there disbelieving
 Then a minute passed and she turned to walk
 Left him without the means to talk
 She was history
 In the first hour in the twilight
 His foot down on the throttle
 His right hand left the steering wheel
 For a half-empty bottle
 Whiskey stings on the first sip
 Then it flows like memories through the lips
 She is history
 [Chorus:]
 You can break apart same as any man
 She can shake your faith like only a woman can
 But the hurt
 The ache
 Won't stop till there's nothing left to take
 From you
 In the fifth hour in the twilight
 A crush of steel and gravel
 His car hung up in mid-air
 Then it came down like a gavel
 And he swore he saw an angel in the light
 Then the wipers woke him left to right
 She is history
 [Repeat Chorus:]
 [Bridge:]
 And there's time to heal
 Time to kill
 And time will take its time
 And the only crime is what you let it steal
 And that's time... time... time...
 [Repeat Chorus:]
