Lyrics

Woman I'm leavin
I'm not lookin back
I know you've heard this all before
But comin' from me
You know it's true

Words on the street from someone
Watchin' my back
Ther's nothing of yours that I need
So take it all with you
When you go...

Out on the town
Another night
Other men
Where was I when you needed me the most
Holdin' the other hand
Holdin' the other hand

So take a strangers' advice
When you've got nothing left
You've got nothing left to lose
So take a strangers' advice
When you've got nothing left
You've got nothing left to lose
Nothin' left to lose...

If I needed you
Like you need
Everybody else
Then you'd be standin here beside me
Instead of on a bus
Heading home

You were foolin'
No one except yourself
Thats just one less fool aroundme
Taking up space
And wasting life

What did you think
I'd sit alone at the bar
No names only time
I spilled out my heart
For her I spilled out my heart

Take a strangers' advice
When you've got nothing left
You've got nothing left to lose
Take a strangers' advice
When you've got nothing left
You've got nothing left to lose
You've got nothin' left to lose...

Do you even remember his name
Well now
You'll remmebr mine...

Take this strangers' advice
When you've got nothing left
You got nothing left to lose
Take this strangers' advice
When you've got nothing left
You've got nothing left to lose...
You've got nothin' left to lose...

You got nothing
You've got nothing
You got nothing
Nothing left to lose
So take a strangers
Take a strangers' advice
You've got nothing
Nothing left to lose....
