Allison Moorer – The One That Got Away (got Away With My Heart) Ağustos 28, 2007

Oh, the one that got away, got away with my heart
Broke into my world and tore it apart
I should pick up the pieces, but I don’t know where to start
Oh, the one that got away, got away with my heart

I lost my heart so easily, I feel like a fool
Against my better judgment, I broke my own rule
I didn’t think I’d fall in love, but what can I do
Oh, I’m hurting and missing him so

Oh, the one that got away, got away with my heart
Broke into my world and tore it apart
I should pick up the pieces, but I don’t know where to start
Oh, the one that got away, got away with my heart

If I felt any better, I think I would die
‘Cause all I do is sit at home, think of him, and cry
But he ain’t worth a single tear that falls from my eye
So why do I still love him anyway

Oh, the one that got away, got away with my heart
Broke into my world and tore it apart
I should pick up the pieces, but I don’t know where to start
Oh, the one that got away, got away with my heart

Allison Moorer – The Hardest Part

Children say that words will never harm you
Only sticks and stones will make you cry
But they’ll grow up one day and learn the real truth
When the one they love says goodbye

The hardest part of living is loving
Cause loving turns to leaving every time
And the hardest part of leaving is living
Life is hard when love is so unkind
Life is hard when love is so unkind

I don’t trust old sayings any longer
Most are only decorated lies
Absence doesn’t make the heart grow fonder
And out of sight don’t mean out of mind

The hardest part of living is loving
Cause loving turns to leaving every time
And the hardest part of leaving is living
Life is hard when love is so unkind
Life is hard when love is so unkind

Allison Moorer – Tell Me Baby

Tell me, baby
How long I’m gonna cry
How long I’m gonna sigh for you

Tell me, baby
Do you remember the promises you made me
Rolling down the road, with the sky so blue

I’m grieving for you
Oh, I miss you so
Believe me, darling
Oh, you just don’t know
I need you and I want you so

Tell me, baby
What are you gonna do
Someday you’ll want me, too, I know

When you want me
You better hope that I don’t leave you lonely
Rolling down the road, with no place to go

I’m grieving for you
Oh, I miss you so
Believe me, darling
Oh, you just don’t know
I need you and I want you so

Tell me, baby
How long I’m gonna cry
How long I’m gonna sigh for you

Tell me, baby
Do you remember the promises you made me
Rolling down the road, with the sky so blue
Rolling down the road, with the sky so blue

Allison Moorer – Set You Free

I found your bag this morning
Did you pack it by yourself
If you would’ve asked me
I’d have given you some help

I hate to disappoint you
But I had a hunch
You would soon be leaving
So I beat you to the punch

I’ll tell you a secret, baby, I let go first
If I was still holding on, then maybe I’d feel worse
But I seen this day coming, so it don’t bother me
I’ve already set you free

I’m glad you’re finally going
But, boy, you took your time
I’d begun to wonder
If you had changed your mind

So you don’t have to sneak out
You’re not going to let me down
That’s already happened
I’m over it by now

I’ll tell you a secret, baby, I let go first
If I was still holding on, then maybe I’d feel worse
But I seen this day coming, so it don’t bother me
I’ve already set you free
I’ve already set you free

Allison Moorer – Send Down An Angel

It’s nearly 3 a.m.
And still no sight of him
When it comes to love
I’m in the dark

Lord, I don’t understand
Why I stand by my man
All he’s ever done
Is break my heart

Won’t you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I’m calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through

I’m not the praying kind
But it can’t hurt to try
I can’t find the answer
By myself
I need help

Won’t you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I’m calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through

Won’t you send down an angel
From the blue
To show me the righteous
Thing to do
Oh, I’m calling out to you
Send down an angel
To get me through

Allison Moorer – Pardon Me

You say the time has come for you to go
Why you’ve decided this, I’ll never know
You say you’ve lost the love you felt for me
Well, baby, you won’t find it if you leave

Pardon me, if I don’t understand
How a love like ours can turn out bad
You tell me I’ll be fine alone
Without the love I’m leaning on
Well, pardon me, if I don’t understand

I can’t see how you’ll be happy far away
But what’s best for you is not for me to say
So I’ll try to keep my feelings to myself
But forgive me if I don’t do too well

Pardon me, if I don’t understand
How a love like ours can turn out bad
You tell me I’ll be fine alone
Without the love I’m leaning on
Well, pardon me, if I don’t understand

You tell me I’ll be fine alone
Without the love I’m leaning on
Well, pardon me, if I don’t understand

Allison Moorer – No Next Time

You’ve finally gone and done it
Broke it right in two
There’s no way you can fix it
So pocket your excuse

Don’t tell me that you’re sorry
That’ll only make it worse
I’m tired of your story
I know it word for word

I make no bones about it
Stupid is as stupid does
I had to learn the hard way
You’re a man that I can’t trust

If only I’d known sooner
I was gonna be betrayed
I would’ve left the first time
I ever heard you say

I didn’t mean to break your heart
I apologize
If you’ll just give me
One more chance
There’ll be no next time
I promise I will never break your heart
Again
Again
Again

Right now it’s a-hurtinBut it’ll be okay
I’ll pick up both the pieces
And be on my way

You know that I love you
Yeah, that’s been my mistake
So before I go, let’s hear it
Once more for old time’s sake

I didn’t mean to break your heart
I apologize
If you’ll just give me
One more chance
There’ll be no next time
I promise I will never break your heart
Again
Again
Again

Allison Moorer – Long Black Train

I’ve been walking these mean streets
Hard concrete beneath my feet
Ain’t found a friendly face among the crowd
The city’s like a Christmas tree
A light for every dreamer’s dream
But it seems mine has finally burned out

Long black train, take me home
I’ve worn out my welcome here, it’s time to go
I have to face the music, this just ain’t where I belong
Long black train, take me home

I should’ve known I was mistaken
When I thought that I’d be making
A name for myself in Babylon
Though I’ve tried to do my best
The suit and ties are not impressed
So with what’s left of my pride, I’ll carry on

Long black train, take me home
I’ve worn out my welcome here, it’s time to go
I have to face the music, this just ain’t where I belong
Long black train, take me home

I’m gonna trade my guitar for a ticket
Then climb aboard and ride you down the track
I know I’m licked, but it’s hard to admit it
Maybe someday you can bring me back

Long black train, take me home
I’ve worn out my welcome here, it’s time to go
I have to face the music, this just ain’t where I belong
Long black train, take me home
Long black train, take me home

Allison Moorer – It’s Time I Tried

Sorrow, I’m told
Comes and goes
But that ain’t what I say

Cause for me
The misery
Never goes away

It’s been like this
Ever since
You told me goodbye

And I’ve refused
To lose these blues
But it’s time I tried

It’s time I tried
To mend my broken heart
Dry my eyes
And make a brand new start
I have to heal this hurt I feel
And get you off my mind
It might be hard
But it’s time I tried

All I do
Is long for you
When I turn out the lights

‘Cause nothing’s left
But loneliness
To hold onto at night

I toss and turn
While my heart yearns
For love I’ve been denied

I can’t replace
Your warm embrace
But it’s time I tried

It’s time I tried
To mend my broken heart
Dry my eyes
And make a brand new start
I have to heal this hurt I feel
And get you off my mind
It might be hard
But it’s time I tried
It’s time I tried

Allison Moorer – Is It Worth It

Is it worth it
You gotta wonder
No sane person
Would say it was

It’s for certain
We’re going under
Things ain’t working
Between the two of us

Is it worth it
To go on trying
We keep rehearsing
And getting worse

Let’s close the curtain
This act’s dying
We did our version
It didn’t work

Is it worth
The price we are paying
Is it worth
The damage being done

Is it worth
The both of us staying
If you think so
Then you’re the only one

Is it worth it
What are we doing
Let’s not be martyrs
For the sake of love

This is a burden
Of our own choosing
It’d be smarter
If we gave up
