Songwriter: Dolly Parton

Though you took your sweet love from me
Oh you left me sweet sweet memories
And I cry, I cry like a little baby
Because there's still a lot of you left in me

Oh there's still a lot of you left in me
And I cry because your love won't set me free
Your love won't set me free
I'll keep holding on to love that used to be
Because there's still a lot of you left in me

Oh I still go to all our favorite places
And I still see all our friends we used to see
Oh but they can tell I'm just not the same without you
And that there's still a lot of you left in me

Oh there's still a lot of you left in me
And I cry because your love won't set me free
It just won't set me free
I keep holding on to love that used to be
Because there's still a lot of you left in me
Because there's still a lot of you left in me

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
