Sara Evans is back on country radio with “All the Love You Left Me,” the second single from her 2017 release Words. It’s is a soaring ballad about heartbreak that finds Evans struggling at the end of a relationship.
Alongside delicate piano accompaniment, Evans’ whispered vocals on the verses powerfully showcase her ability to emote. Penned by Hillary Lindsey, Gordie Sampson and Ben West, “All the Love You Left Me” includes striking lyrics that further emphasize the hurt the song’s narrator is feeling.
“Can’t wash it off like makeup / Leave it in the closet like a dress out of style / Can’t light it up and burn it / Box it up and send it like the shirt you left behind / What am I supposed to do with / What am I supposed to do with / All the love you left me,” Evans sings.
Fans can catch Evans singing this one each night on the road. The singer is currently headlining the 2018 CMT Next Women of Country Tour with RaeLynn and ToC RISERS rising star Kalie Shorr serving as opening acts.
Sara Evans’ “All the Love You Left Me” Lyrics:
It’s here when I wake up every single morning / Follows me down the stairs / And the paper on the wall and the plaster on the ceiling / Every single drop of air that I’m breathing / What am I supposed to do / What am I supposed to do with / All the love you left me / All the love you left me
Chorus:
It can’t hold me, it don’t kiss me / But in these sheets, it lays down with me / All the love you left me / You left me, left me, left me, left me / You left me, left me, left me, left me
Can’t wash it off like makeup / Leave it in the closet like a dress out of style / Can’t light it up and burn it / Box it up and send it like the shirt you left behind / What am I supposed to do with / What am I supposed to do with / All the love you left me / Yeah all the love you left me
It can’t hold me, it don’t kiss me / But in these sheets, it lays down with me / I turn the lights on, I turn the lights off / But it don’t matter, baby, all that I got is
All the love you left me / Yeah all the love you left me
