You Left It Up To Me Lyrics - Strange Fire - Indigo Girls

when I let you go 

I cursed myself with empty hands 

strong enough to watch you walk 

but 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 

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

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 

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 

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 

Photos 

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 your feeling alone 

don't come home 

cause when it was up to you 

when it was up to you 

you 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
