Johnny Cash - Stripped

Let me tell you the saddest story
 Love lost, left broken and empty
 Put my heart in the hands of another
 Set a fire to the past and watched me burn
 ♪
 Somehow, I guess it's better this way
 Looking back, was it all just a mistake?
 Thought I could live in the arms of another
 But I guess I wasn't enough for her
 I wanna feel the love you can't live without
 The one that Johnny Cash wrote all his songs about
 But I gave it all away for no return
 Guess it's just another lesson that I'll never learn
 I've been putting myself through your Hell
 Holding on to things that don't even matter now
 You found your place in the arms of another
 But now I see it's just the way the Earth will turn
 I wanna feel the love you can't live without
 The one that Johnny Cash wrote all his songs about
 But I gave it all away for no return
 Guess it's just another lesson that I'll never learn
 Can't seem to fill the void that lives in my chest
 Thought I was what you need, but I'm just second best
 I'll never give it all away again I swear
 Don't even look for a heart, you'll find there's nothing there

 (I can't take it back)
 All the years that we spent together have come to an end
 (Regret is all I had)
 Not sure I would if I could do it all over again
 (I can't take it back)
 The memories, the pictures, I love you's will wither
 (Regret is all I had)
 But this is the last song I'll write about you
 Forget my name
 Forget my face
 It was all just empty space
 Deadweight; no longer part of me
