What She Left Behind Toby Keith No Capo [Intro] [Verse 1] Bottle of perfume left for dead On the table by her side of the bed I spray a little in the air And out of nowhere she’s there [Verse 2] Hair on fire in the middle of the night Just like that she’s loving me Just like yesterday and into the thin air She disappears again [Chorus]   Took her sandals took her sundress   Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace   She left her barefoot beach and her sunset And all the love we made that night   Took some blame and some time for herself   Pretty much left everything else It ain’t what she took that messes with my mind It’s what she left behind           [Verse 3] The clothes she wore the night before Still laying on the bathroom floor When I found her ring on the sink I died Right there where she said goodbye [Verse 4] Half a bottle of wine where she found the nerve A goodbye I never heard On a teardrop letter I didn’t read But the worst thing she left was me and [Chorus]   Took her sandals took her sundress   Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace   She left her barefoot beach and her sunset And all the love we made that night   Took some blame and some time for herself   Pretty much left everything else It ain’t what she took that messes with my mind It’s what she left behind           [Interlude] [Chorus]   Took her sandals took her sundress   Took her ten dollar sand dollar necklace   Left her barefoot beach and her sunset And all the love we made that night   Took some blame and some time for herself   Pretty much left everything else So it ain’t what she took that messes with my mind   [Outro] No it ain’t what she took that messes with my mind It’s what she left behind       What she left behind       Oh what she left behind           [Outro]

La chanson évoque les souvenirs poignants d’un amour perdu, où l'artiste se remémore les petites choses laissées derrière par cette personne. On y trouve des objets du quotidien qui évoquent des moments de bonheur partagé, mais surtout une mélancolie profonde face à son départ. Ce qu'elle a emporté semble moins douloureux que tout ce qu’elle a laissé, en particulier le vide émotionnel qu'il ressent. Le récit se déroule dans un cadre familial, où chaque élément matériel devient un symbole d'un lien fort et d’un passé heureux, avant que tout ne se désagrège. L’artiste exprime ses sentiments d’abandon et de regret, tout en réalisant que ce sont les souvenirs qui marquent le plus.
