All I Left Behind

written by Emmylou Harris and Kate & Anna McGarrigle © Almo Music Corp/ Poodlebone Music/ Garden Court Music (ASCAP) 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 moccasions in Tonopah 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 Silk was all I had between me and your skin Like Waterloo I lost that too And the golden bracelet with my father's 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 near Coeur 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
