Every Time You Leave
Emmylou Harris · Portraits [Warner] [1996]
(Charlie Louvin/Ira Louvin)
Everytime you leave
You tear the soul from me
I die a little more each time apart
I can't control my dreams
My heart can't seem to learn
To turn and lock it's door when you return.
I know that you'll come back again
As soon as you get blue
And I know what will happen then
One kiss and I'll give one to you.
Everytime you leave
You tear the soul from me
But I want to live so I'll forgive
Everytime you leave...
Everytime you leave
You tear the soul from me
I die a little more each time apart
I can't control my dreams
My heart can't seem to learn
To turn and lock it's door when you return.
I know that you'll come back again
As soon as you get blue
And I know what will happen then
One kiss and I'll give one to you.
Everytime you leave
You tear the soul from me
But I want to live so I'll forgive
Everytime you leave...
