Nothing At All Lyrics
I am a victim of my time
A product of my age
There's no choosing my direction
I was a holy man, but now
With all my trials behind me,
I am weak in my conviction
And so I walk to try to get away
Knowing that someday I will finally have to face
The fear that will come from knowing that
The one thing I had left was you
And now you're gone
You were a victim of my crimes
A product of my rage
You were a beautiful distraction
I kept you locked away outside
Let misery provide
And now I am ashamed
And so I walk to try to find a space
Where I can be alone to life with my mistakes
And the fear that will come
From knowing that the one thing
I had left was you
And now you're gone
Is there nothing at all
That I can do to turn your heart
Is there nothing to lean on
That could help erase the scars
Te quiero - me quiero
And I could use a little strength before I fall
Is there nothign at all
I am a victim of my time
A product of the age
You alone are my obsession
You were the one I left behind
You've been heavy on my mind
It's been a lonely road I've traveled
And so I walk to try to get away
Knowing that someday I will finally have to face
The fear that will come from knowing that
The one think I had left was you
And now you're gone
Is there nothing at all
That I can do to turn your heart
Is there nothing to lean on
That could help erase the scars
Te quiero - me quiero
And I could use a little strength before I fall
Is there nothign at all
A product of my age
There's no choosing my direction
I was a holy man, but now
With all my trials behind me,
I am weak in my conviction
Knowing that someday I will finally have to face
The fear that will come from knowing that
The one thing I had left was you
And now you're gone
A product of my rage
You were a beautiful distraction
I kept you locked away outside
Let misery provide
And now I am ashamed
Where I can be alone to life with my mistakes
And the fear that will come
From knowing that the one thing
I had left was you
And now you're gone
That I can do to turn your heart
Is there nothing to lean on
That could help erase the scars
Te quiero - me quiero
And I could use a little strength before I fall
Is there nothign at all
A product of the age
You alone are my obsession
You were the one I left behind
You've been heavy on my mind
It's been a lonely road I've traveled
Knowing that someday I will finally have to face
The fear that will come from knowing that
The one think I had left was you
And now you're gone
That I can do to turn your heart
Is there nothing to lean on
That could help erase the scars
Te quiero - me quiero
And I could use a little strength before I fall
Is there nothign at all

I'm not quite sure what the songs means- it kind of seems to me that he has messed up something and now realizes his mistakes and wishes he could fix everything. But, i'm not really sure. All I know is that I really like this song. My favorite part is when he says, "The one thing I had left was you, and now you're gone" It's like he is just opening his eyes to the damaged he caused, and realizes he is alone, and wants to do something- but he knows it's a little too late. I love it!
Its hard to be in a relationship when you have a lot of baggage and you're not as together as you should be. I think the guy in the song did that. I think he entered a relationship at a bad point in his life and he messed it up. But now he realizes his mistakes and he wants another chance.
i was actually surprised rob thomas wasn't in this CD, especially since he wrote (or helped write) this song & "You Are My Kind" with Seal. But beggars can't be choosers, and both songs are great, so i can't complain.
Sounds like a nice guy who had values has done her wrong and gone against all the principles he stood for which made him so attractive to her in the first place. He is looking for a way to make it up to her for he knows she is his one true love and that he cannot bear to be without her.
