《If The Fall Don’t Kill You(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] If The Fall Don't Kill You - Travis Tritt

[00:00:11] They'd been high school sweethearts since

[00:00:14] They were just fifteen

[00:00:16] A storybook beginning with

[00:00:19] The wedding of their dreams

[00:00:21] Consumed by his ambition he soon left her at home

[00:00:27] With a promise and an empty house

[00:00:30] And too much time alone

[00:00:36] Her boredom turned to drinking

[00:00:39] And drinking turned to lies

[00:00:42] And he let her get too far gone before he realized

[00:00:47] And you wouldn't recognize them

[00:00:49] If you'd known them way back when

[00:00:52] 'Cause now the flame of love's burned out

[00:00:55] And can't be lit again

[00:00:58] And it's the same old story

[00:01:01] You've heard a thousand times

[00:01:03] Somebody's trust gets broken

[00:01:06] Somebody's left behind

[00:01:09] You try walking a tightrope

[00:01:11] But it's all uphill

[00:01:14] And if the fall don't kill you

[00:01:17] Lord the heartbreak will

[00:01:23] Two more childhood sweethearts in a small town far away

[00:01:29] Committed to each other since before their wedding day

[00:01:34] This will last forever that's what the whole town said

[00:01:39] But there are some temptations that

[00:01:42] Can turn a good man's head

[00:01:46] She was unexpeced when she came home from town

[00:01:51] She never even noticed all the window shades pulled down

[00:01:57] And though he begged forgiveness

[00:01:59] She turned and ran away

[00:02:02] With the image of betrayal that time just can't erase

[00:02:08] And it's the same old story

[00:02:11] You've heard a thousand times

[00:02:13] Somebody's trust gets broken

[00:02:16] Somebody's left behind

[00:02:19] You try walking a tightrope

[00:02:21] But it's all uphill

[00:02:24] And if the fall don't kill you

[00:02:27] Lord the heartbreak will

[00:02:30] And it's a sad old benediction to a wasted slice of life

[00:02:36] And there's an overwhelming price you've got to pay

[00:02:41] It's a losin' proposition and it cuts just like a knife

[00:02:46] You can't expect the hurt to go away

[00:02:51] And it's the same old story

[00:02:54] You've heard a thousand times

[00:02:56] Somebody's trust gets broken

[00:02:59] Somebody's left behind

[00:03:02] You try walking a tightrope

[00:03:03] But it's all uphill

[00:03:07] And if the fall don't kill you

[00:03:10] Lord the heartbreak will

[00:03:12] And if the fall don't kill you

[00:03:15] Lord the heartbreak will

[00:03:19] Oh yeah
