"Whatever's Left" lyrics

Whatever's Left

She never was much
When it came to pretending
And I knew that something was wrong
She never was one
Who could hide her emotions
Or keep any secret too long

You must have been out of your mind
Even thinking
There was something
That she wouldn't tell
The fact you believe
She could keep this inside her
Just proves you don't know her too well

I hope for your sake
She's not something you borrowed
That might have looked good
At thе time
It's a little bit late
In thе day to remind you
You're laying it all on the line

And don't you believe
That in time I'll forget it
And when she comes crying to me
That's when you'd best
Give your soul to somebody
Cause whatever's left goes to me

I've already told her
To do what she wants to
And she seemed a little confused
She knows that I love her
So much that I'll give her
This chance to be happy with you

But the first time you hurt her
She's gonna come crying
And you'd better be on your knees
Yes, that's when you'd best
Give your soul to somebody
Cause whatever's left goes to me

That's when you'd best
Give your soul to somebody
Cause whatever's left goes to me
