Lyrics
WELL THE THUNDER ROLLED LAST NIGHT
AND IT SCARED THE CLOUDS UNTIL THEY STARTED TO CRY
AND AS THE RAIN CAME DOWN
YOU SAT AND WATCHED YOUR LAST DREAM DROWN
HE'S BEEN DRINKING EVERY NIGHT
AND THE AIR'S SO THICK BECAUSE HE'S ITCHING TO FIGHT
SO YOU DON'T MAKE A SOUND
YOU KEEP YOURSELF AWAKE ON THE COUCH
CHORUS:
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO HOLD YOU
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO SAY
THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO FIX
BREAKING UP COMES DOWN TO THIS
LEAVING ON A RAINY DAY
YOU'VE ASKED FRIENDS FOR THEIR ADVICE
YOU'VE DONE EVERYTHING EVERY SINGLE NIGHT
BUT IT TAKES TWO TO LOVE
HE WON'T EVEN SOBER UP
THERE'S A THOUSAND REASONS WHY
YOU COULD WALK AWAY WITH YOUR HEAD HELD HIGH
AND LEAVE THIS HURT BEHIND
GOD KNOWS THAT YOU'VE REALLY TRIED
CHORUS
YOU'VE BEEN HOLDING ON TO SOMETHING
THAT CAN ONLY HOLD YOU BACK
YOU CAN'T SAVE SOMEBODY ELSE
IF YOU KEEP SAVING YOURSELF LAST
CHORUS
OH THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO FIX
BREAKING UP COMES DOWN TO THIS
