Deeper Than Crying Lyrics - Alison Krauss

(Mark Simos/Devachan Music, BMI) 

Leaving is the longest word I ever learned 

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

If a heartbeat lasts a lifetime then I've lived before 

'cause I remember standing at this open door 

Chorus: 

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 

Chorus 

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' so 

Chorus
