You Didn’t Take It All
Final – 3/26



Verse 1
I don’t reach for you like I used to
Leave my phone face down at night
Still catch myself driftin’ through habits
I know ain’t mine alone

Take your way around that stoplight
Didn’t even think twice
Heard your words come out my mouth
In a way that sounded right



Chorus
You didn’t take it all when you disappeared
Yeah, I’m still runnin’ on somethin’ you left here
It’s in the way I order what you used to drink
Take a turn I never used to think
Say things I swore I’d never say out loud
Ain’t you, ain’t me right now
Girl, you’re gone, it’s crystal clear
You didn’t take it all, you left it here



Verse 2
I still park a little further over
Like you hated door dings bad
Keep the radio on that station
Even when the song ain’t landin’

Catch myself slowin’ conversations
Draggin’ words like you would do
People say I seem more patient lately
Guess I kept more you than me



Chorus
You didn’t take it all when you disappeared
Yeah, I’m still runnin’ on somethin’ you left here
It’s in the way I order what you used to drink
Take a turn I never used to think
Say things I swore I’d never say out loud
Ain’t you, ain’t me right now
Girl, you’re gone, it’s crystal clear
You didn’t take it all, you left it here



Bridge
I thought time would square me up
Put me back where I began
Turns out I kept the pieces
That don’t fit who I am



Final Chorus
You didn’t take it all when you disappeared
Yeah, I’m still runnin’ on somethin’ you left here
It’s in the way I order what you used to drink
Take a turn I never used to think
Say things I swore I’d never say out loud
Ain’t you, ain’t me right now
Girl, you’re gone, it’s crystal clear
You didn’t take it all… you left me here

(soft background echo: kept more you than me)



Outro
Left it here… left me here…
Left it here… left me here…
(final, quiet) kept more you than me

There is no Suno shaming here. No worries.

Not worried about suno shaming , I know it’s a tool used by Nashville now and they aren’t saying. If someone is using for fun to make up songs  go for it, or a real writer is putting in original material and doing same thing they would do with a band (if can afford) then let them.   The old argument that taking money out of musicians pockets is an excuse. An artist if they take the song will record it and pay those musicians when it happens.

Thanks

Exactly.  He was getting ready to drink and she knew he would so she called before it could happen

Here is a link to hear my original songs. Hope you visit

Check out Curtis Flint - Songwriter 's songs on Song Refiners: https://songrefiners.com/pitch/curtisflintsongwriter



I chased my Nashville dream from 25-32 years old back in late 1990’s. Moved there for two years……Then chased the girl back home (still songs being written about that.
Had a 7 piece band and performed shows in midwest.
Met my wife and settled into raising kids. Gave up the dream for 25 years. This last year I pulled out some old note books with song ideas and started to write songs aimed at other artist instead of myself. It opened up something very creatative in me again. Discovering apps like suno to upload my melody’s and lyrics and then build the production like a producer has been a blessing. Anyone that frowns in ai ….well can keep it to themselves.  These are my songs and using ai to build them is no different then going to my old band and asking them to write parts for my songs (they never once claimed ownership)

I am starting to have success and I like how it feels. This is my year !!

She knew he’d drink then call and she knew he would so she called before he could start

Title: Two Beers From Calling You
Original Lyrics by Curtis Flint – 2026

[Verse 1]
We were standing in your driveway
Tail lights glowing in the dark
You said maybe we both needed
A little time apart
You said give it space, let it breathe
Like people sometimes do
Then you turned back with one last line
Before I watched you leave
“Don’t call me when you’ve been drinking”

[Chorus]
Your name’s still sitting at the top
Every time I scroll my phone
You said don’t call me when you’ve been drinking
So I’ve been trying to leave it alone
One more song, one more round
Might push me through
One bad choice from hearing your voice
Two beers from calling you

[Verse 2]
This place still plays the songs you loved
That corner booth’s the same
Someone laughed across the room tonight
Almost sounded like your name
I told myself I’d leave you be
Like you asked me to do
But every mile I drove tonight
Just led me back to you

[Chorus]
Your name’s still sitting at the top
Every time I scroll my phone
You said don’t call me when you’ve been drinking
So I’ve been trying to leave it alone
One more song, one more round
Might push me through
One bad choice from hearing your voice
Two beers from calling you

[Bridge]
Maybe you were right about us
Maybe time’s the only cure
But if letting go was easy
Why’s your number still right here

[Final Chorus]
I was one bad choice from hearing your voice
Two beers from calling you
When your name lit up my phone
Like you always knew I would
You said don’t call me when you’ve been drinking
Girl you know me too
Yeah I was two beers from calling
When I heard from you

Good At Leaving First new

Verse 1
You don’t hang pictures
You lean ‘em on the wall
Say it feels better
If it ain’t forever at all
Half-packed suitcase
On your side of the bed
Like you’re ready to leave
Before it’s even said

You laugh it off
Say that’s just who you are
But I’ve seen that look
Right before it falls apart



Pre-Chorus
It ain’t about me
It never was
You get too close
You start to run



Chorus
You’re good at leavin’ first
Keys already in your purse
Before forever gets a chance to work
You don’t say a word
Just say “it’s gonna hurt”
Then you’re already halfway gone
You don’t let it burn
You just cut the lights and turn
When it’s gettin’ too close to love
Yeah you’re good at leavin’ first



Verse 2
You’re starin’ at your phone
Like it’s sayin’ what to do
You say “we’ve been here before”
Like it ain’t me and you
Every little thing
Turns into “this ain’t it”
Like you’re scared of a feelin’
You ain’t felt yet

You’re reachin’ for your jacket
Before I can speak
Standin’ right here
But you’re already leavin’ me



Pre-Chorus
It ain’t me you’re fightin’
It’s that fear
Of fallin’ all the way in here



Chorus
You’re good at leavin’ first
Keys already in your purse
Before forever gets a chance to work
You don’t say a word
Just say “it’s gonna hurt”
Then you’re already halfway gone
You don’t let it burn
You just cut the lights and turn
When it’s gettin’ too close to love
Girl you’re good at leavin’ first



Bridge
What if I don’t chase
What if I stay
Long enough for you
To not run away
What if love don’t mean
Losin’ who you are
What if I’m still here
With my whole heart



Final Chorus
You’re good at leavin’ first
Keys already in your purse
Before forever gets a chance to work
You don’t say a word
Just say “it’s gonna hurt”
Then you’re already halfway gone
You don’t let it burn
You just cut the lights and turn
When it’s gettin’ too close to love
Yeah you’re good at leavin’ first
But I’m still here… if you ever don’t
