 Alison Kraus - Deeper Than Crying

 ===================================

 

 Leaving is the longest word that I ever learned

 In the time it takes to say it, the whole world has turned

 If a heartbeat lasts a lifetime then I have lived before

 'Cause I remember standing at this open door

 

 This path is not the one I'd choose to travel

 Even as we watch what tied us unravel

 And the tears fall like rain

 Deeper than crying, the loving still remains

 

 Neither wants to be the one to say goodbye

 And neither wants to be the one who's left to cry

 But in our secret heart of hearts we both know

 That the time for patching up has passed and it's time to go

 

 This path is not the one I'd choose to travel

 Even as we watch what tied us unravel

 And the tears fall like rain

 Deeper than crying, the loving still remains

 

 So I'll be the one to pull our tangled lives apart

 I won't dodge the angry words that hide a broken heart

 And my calm fare-thee-wells cannot obscure

 That deep inside, my heart is also hurtin' sore

 

 This path is not the one I'd choose to travel

 Even as we watch what tied us unravel

 And the tears fall like rain

 Deeper than crying, the loving still remains
