"Every Time You Leave" lyrics

Shelby Lynne & Allison Moorer Lyrics

"Every Time You Leave"
(originally by The Louvin Brothers)

Every time you leave
You tear the soul from me
I die a little more each time we part

I can't control my dreams
My heart can't seem to learn
To run and lock its door when you return

I know that you'll come back again
As soon as you get blue
And I will know what happened then
One kiss and I'll give in to you

Every time you leave
You tear the soul from me
But I want to live so I forgive
Every time you leave

Every time you leave
You tear the soul from me
But I want to live so I forgive
Every time you leave
