If The Fall Don't Kill You - Travis Tritt[00:00:01]
They'd been high school sweethearts since[00:00:11]
They were just fifteen[00:00:14]
A storybook beginning with[00:00:16]
The wedding of their dreams[00:00:19]
Consumed by his ambition he soon left her at home[00:00:21]
With a promise and an empty house[00:00:27]
And too much time alone[00:00:30]
Her boredom turned to drinking[00:00:36]
And drinking turned to lies[00:00:39]
And he let her get too far gone before he realized[00:00:42]
And you wouldn't recognize them[00:00:47]
If you'd known them way back when[00:00:49]
'Cause now the flame of love's burned out[00:00:52]
And can't be lit again[00:00:55]
And it's the same old story[00:00:58]
You've heard a thousand times[00:01:01]
Somebody's trust gets broken[00:01:03]
Somebody's left behind[00:01:06]
You try walking a tightrope[00:01:09]
But it's all uphill[00:01:11]
And if the fall don't kill you[00:01:14]
Lord the heartbreak will[00:01:17]
Two more childhood sweethearts in a small town far away[00:01:23]
Committed to each other since before their wedding day[00:01:29]
This will last forever that's what the whole town said[00:01:34]
But there are some temptations that[00:01:39]
Can turn a good man's head[00:01:42]
She was unexpeced when she came home from town[00:01:46]
She never even noticed all the window shades pulled down[00:01:51]
And though he begged forgiveness[00:01:57]
She turned and ran away[00:01:59]
With the image of betrayal that time just can't erase[00:02:02]
And it's the same old story[00:02:08]
You've heard a thousand times[00:02:11]
Somebody's trust gets broken[00:02:13]
Somebody's left behind[00:02:16]
You try walking a tightrope[00:02:19]
But it's all uphill[00:02:21]
And if the fall don't kill you[00:02:24]
Lord the heartbreak will[00:02:27]
And it's a sad old benediction to a wasted slice of life[00:02:30]
And there's an overwhelming price you've got to pay[00:02:36]
It's a losin' proposition and it cuts just like a knife[00:02:41]
You can't expect the hurt to go away[00:02:46]
And it's the same old story[00:02:51]
You've heard a thousand times[00:02:54]
Somebody's trust gets broken[00:02:56]
Somebody's left behind[00:02:59]
You try walking a tightrope[00:03:02]
But it's all uphill[00:03:03]
And if the fall don't kill you[00:03:07]
Lord the heartbreak will[00:03:10]
And if the fall don't kill you[00:03:12]
Lord the heartbreak will[00:03:15]
Oh yeah[00:03:19]
