Deeper Than Crying

Lyrics

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]
