Indigo Girls
You Left It Up To Me
[Verse 1]
When I let you go
I cursed myself with empty hands
Strong enough to watch you walk
Not enough to understand
With spiteful eyes you burn for my grace
I was trying to stand outside of this
You were trying to save face

[Chorus]
You can say that I don't care
I don't care
You can hope that we still
Have something left to share
But just between you, baby and me
Just between me, baby and you
There's nothing there

[Verse 2]
I finally found someone I can hold
You ask me to defend myself
As if I shouldn't be so bold
Well, get that look off of your face
I don't have the time
You don't have the place
[Chorus]
To say that I don't care
I don't care
To hope that we still
Have something left to share
And just between me, baby and you
Just between you, baby and me
There's nothing there

[Verse 3]
Baby, what are you gonna do?
I can't salvage any truth for you
Everybody else already knows
It hurts you to realize
So leave well enough
Enough alone

[Outro]
And you don't need my hands
To help you understand
You don't need to hear my voice
(You have no choice)
So don't be throwing stones
The closer we get
The harder they come
Now even if you're feeling alone
Don't come home
'Cause when it was up to you
(When it was up to you)
When it was up to you
You left it up to me
Left it up to me
Oh, you left
Oh, you left
Oh, you left it up to me
When it was up to you
You left it up to me
