Sammy Kershaw - Matches lyrics

We meet at the Broken Spoke Restaurant & Lounge
I lit your cigarette then you wrote your number down.
On the inside of a matchbook that was laying on the bar
And a fire started burning somewhere in my heart

I did not see it coming, guess I did not read the signs
I just never thought you would leave me after all this time.
But today when I came home my key was hollow in the door
And there was nothing but a worn out book of matches on the floor

Chorus
You took the bed; you took the dishes & the car
And you broke my trust & you took advantage of my heart
And you left me here with empty rooms & walls with holes, scars & scratches,
If I find the strength to burn your memory down
At least you left the matches.

The color is old & faded; the cover´s worn & stained
I can still make out the numbers & the heart beside your name
Till tonight they would only lit a single cigarette
Now one by one I am striking them to help me to forget

And everybody at the broken spoke
They all thought my crazy story was a joke
Now they are all out in the parking lot
Staring at the smoke

Chorus
You took the bed; you took the dishes & the car
And you broke my trust & you took advantage of my heart
And you left me here with empty rooms of walls & holes, scars & scratches
Now I found the strength to burn your memory down
At least you left the matches.

Baby all that is left of our love now is ashes
Thank god you left the matches
