I Couldn't Leave You If I Tried (Album Version)

I Couldn't Leave You If I Tried (Album Version) - Rodney Crowell

The sun is comin' up and I'm just goin' down

Everywhere I look the world keeps turnin' 'round

Though I said I never would be satisfied

Oh baby I lied I couldn't leave you if I tried

Sometimes I get lost out on this sad old town

And every bridge I cross just turns me upside down

And every stumbling step I take back to your side

It hurts my pride I couldn't leave you if I tried

Well I could not walk away no matter what I say

I won't be leaving believe it or don't

You're all that I want

Tears may fall but after all is said and done

Darlin' please believe me you're the only one

And I'll admit mistakes I've made me realize

Baby I lied I couldn't leave you if I tried

I won't be leaving you no matter what I do

I'm gonna see it through 'til the end

And do it again

Years may come and friends may go but that's okay

Darlin' you're the only one I need to stay

And I know I said I never would be satisfied

Baby I lied I couldn't leave you if I tried

I couldn't leave you if I tried
