From the recording He Left Behind
Lyrics
HE LEFT BEHIND
Donna Dutchess, John Rose, Chris Sligh
VERSE 1:
He left you broken - split wide open
You know he put a fence around your heart
He made lovin’ something not worth trustin’
And getting over what he did’s been way too hard
You want love but your feet are glued to the ground
I ain’t giving you up or walking out, yeah…
CHORUS:
He didn’t see your love for Jesus
Or the mom you wanna be
He didn’t understand your kindness
Or the life you wanna lead
He didn’t see what he’d be missing
But I’m seeing it just fine
His loss, my gain
I love all the things
He left behind
VERSE 2:
You can do some healing - slowly lettin’ me in
In time I think you’ll find it’s safe to stay
I don’t know nothing but I know what love is
If I need to wait I’ll wait
But I just gotta say…
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Now I get that ‘miss you” dimpled smile
And that silhouette that drives me wild
The way you dance after a glass of wine
I get all the things he left me behind, cuz…
REPEAT CHORUS
