Nothing More, Nothing Less
I have nothing left for love but regret
I regret the day I looked into his sleepy brown eyes
For it was only a front to crawl between my thighs
He delivered me all right
He delivered me from myself into a place only Satan could create
I had been the happiest woman alive for a moment, or so I thought
And I have cried until there were no more tears and my eyes were dried out
No more me left only miles and miles of doubt
I'm here today because deep within me there is strength
The heart to forgive and the will to live
He took my heart and damn near took my soul
But I cut him before he took the very last of me
And I'm here as a survivor of love and for love I only have regret
Nothing more, nothing less
