some inspiring lyrics from Emmylou Harris, and Kate & Anna McGarrigle

All I left behind, should come as no surprise
To me since I fell through the black hole of your eyes
Only little things inconsequential I could say
Of all I left behind with you along the lost highway
Silver earrings in Wichita
Beaded moccasins in Tonapah
But I had you so, I just let them go
The flannel shirt I wore, to keep me from the cold
When we drove from Boston all the way to Buffalo
The leather boots I bought so many miles ago
I took them off to follow you into the Ohio
Never did my armor feel so thin
When silk was all I had between me and your skin
Like Waterloo, I lost that too
And the golden bracelet with my fathers name inscribed
on the back by the one who loved him all her life
The way I too, could have loved you
The spanish shawl I put across the broken shade
of the lamp that lit the room
That last night in Cour d' Alene
Only little things, inconsequential I could say
Of all I left behind with you, along the lost highway
Of All I Left Behind
