It's Time I Tried Lyrics

Allison Moorer

(Allison Moorer/Doyle Primm)

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
