Bottle of perfume left on the table

By her side of the bed

I spray a little in the air

And outta nowhere, she's there

Hair on fire in the middle of the night

Just like that, she's lovin' me

Just like yesterday and into the thin air

She disappears again



Took her sandals, took her sundress

Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace

She left a barefoot beach and a sunset

And all the love we made that night

Took some blame and some time for herself

Pretty much left everything else

It ain't what she took that messes with my mind



It's what she left behind



Clothes she wore the night before

Still layin' on the bathroom floor

When I found her ring on the sink I died right there

Where she said goodbye

Have a bottle of wine, where she found the nerve

A goodbye I never heard



On a teardropped letter I didn't read

But the worst thing she left was me



Took her sandals, took her sundress

Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace

She left a barefoot beach and a sunset

And all the love we made that night

Took some blame and some time for herself

Pretty much left everything else

It ain't what she took that messes with my mind

It's what she left behind

Took her sandals, took her sundress

Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace

She left a barefoot beach and a sunset

And all the love we made that night

Took some blame and some time for herself

Pretty much left everything else

So it ain't what she took that messes with my mind

No, it ain't what she took that messes with my mind

It's what she left behind

It's what she left behind

What she left behind
