Left For Dead
My lover left me for dead
Got under my skin, then said it's all in my head
My lover left me for dead
My pretty little body keeps the wolves fed
But I can't force his hand
No, I can't make him stay
I got too much love to give
To let it sit here and decay
Now he loiters just beyond my reach
The ship has sunk
But still I stay there to wash upon the beach
My lover left me out in the cold
He's busy chasing silver, got no room for gold
My lover left me out in the cold
Headed straight to her place, or so I've been told
But I can't force his hand
No, I can't make him stay
I got too much love to give
To let it sit here and decay
Now he loiters just beyond my reach
The ship has sunk
But still I stay there to wash upon the beach
My lover left me for dead
Got me feeling blue, but all I see is red
My lover left me for dead
Heart full of love and a belly full of lead
But I can't force his hand
No, I can't make him stay
I got too much love to give
To let it sit here and decay
Now he loiters just beyond my reach
The ship has sunk
But still I stay there to wash upon the beach
My lover made a mistake
Run, better run, boy, goodness sake
Oh, lover says it was a mistake
He said he spot a gun and the mud for the snakes
Got under my skin, then said it's all in my head
My lover left me for dead
My pretty little body keeps the wolves fed
But I can't force his hand
No, I can't make him stay
I got too much love to give
To let it sit here and decay
Now he loiters just beyond my reach
The ship has sunk
But still I stay there to wash upon the beach
My lover left me out in the cold
He's busy chasing silver, got no room for gold
My lover left me out in the cold
Headed straight to her place, or so I've been told
But I can't force his hand
No, I can't make him stay
I got too much love to give
To let it sit here and decay
Now he loiters just beyond my reach
The ship has sunk
But still I stay there to wash upon the beach
My lover left me for dead
Got me feeling blue, but all I see is red
My lover left me for dead
Heart full of love and a belly full of lead
But I can't force his hand
No, I can't make him stay
I got too much love to give
To let it sit here and decay
Now he loiters just beyond my reach
The ship has sunk
But still I stay there to wash upon the beach
My lover made a mistake
Run, better run, boy, goodness sake
Oh, lover says it was a mistake
He said he spot a gun and the mud for the snakes
