Krauss, Alison - Till I Can Gain Control Again Lyrics






Just like the sun over the mountain top
You know I'll always come again
You know I love to spend my morning time
Like sunlight dancing on your skin

I've never gone so wrong as to telling lies to you
And what you've seen is what I've been
And there is nothing I could hide from you
You see me better than I can

Out on the road that leads before me now
There are some turns where I will spin
I only hope that you can hold me now
Till I can gain control again

Like a lighthouse you must stand alone
Landmark the sailor's journeys end
No matter what seas I've have been sailing on
I'll always roll this way again

Out on the road that lies before me now
There are some turns where I will spin
I only hope that you can hold me now
Till I can gain control again

Till I can gain control again

Krauss, Alison Till I Can Gain Control Again Comments
  1. R.... N....

    Alison has always been one of the best voice out there. The purity of her voice is one of a kind.

  2. G.... J....

    After seeing this video several times, I have to say, as much as I love Emmylou, she can't hold a candle to this performance or Alison.  Maybe it's the slower tempo combined with Alison's demeanor, presence, and her incredible vocals that makes her #1 in my book.

  3. R.... W....

    Soundtrack of heaven

  4. M.... S....

    So soothing to listen to when your feeling down, purest voice

  5. S.... W....

    I love this girls voice

  6. a.... g....

    Voice of an angel and the look to melt hearts!

  7. G.... ....

    Alison is amazing but this song will always belong to Crystal Gale.

  8. R.... L....

    I love her the most when she sings with Jamey Johnson

  9. M.... R....

    People with larger noses can sing better bc they can breath in more air. Some of the most beautiful voices are from people that have very large noses. She had a nose job too.....

  10. R.... P....

    Holy Moses! This is beyond beautiful!!

  11. B.... K....

    I can't imagine what it would be like as a writer to hear someone interpret your song at this level of perfection. Enjoy it Rodney.

  12. W.... B....

    Perfection!! Incredible voice.

  13. J.... S....

    My Angel.....

  14. L.... ....

    Sometimes, there's no road back & maybe, rightfully so. All a mystery.

  15. G.... J....

    Alison always presents herself with such grace.  She makes it look so easy to sing and play at the same time, not an easy feat.  But then again, all the great ones make it look easy.  I'm in awe of her every time she performs.  Thank God for bringing her to us.

  16. j.... l....

    I Love her music no big show Great music makes the biggest SHOW

  17. B.... P....

    such a beautiful song

  18. C.... S....

    So beautiful and I love her angelic voice! She is special Keep using your gift Allison! Thank you for sharing this great video!

  19. R.... D....

    This is breathtaking.

  20. M.... ....

    First saw Alison on the Masters of Violin tour in the late 80s when she was only 15. Seamus Connelly, the great Irish fiddler said of her, as a token of great respect of her fiddle talents "we hate her with affection". :) Listen up, she is a gift to all of us.

  21. R.... C....

    Believe that is what the angels will sound like.

  22. D.... A....

    2020 Never Could Begin More Angelical!!! Thank You Alison. Happy New Years Beautiful Lady!

  23. T.... v....

    Simply outstanding

  24. b.... b....

    I see 155 people forgot to turn on their speakers.

  25. A.... P....

    An absolute angel - does the heart good !

  26. H.... I....

    This is my heaven … Alison Krauss and a Steel Guitar

    H.... I....

    The piano player adds a little it as well...

    H.... I....

    @Bama Keyman The piano player is excellent. A perfect balance of understatement and solid foundation.
    But pianos do not move me in the same way that steel guitars and Alison Krauss do.

  27. K.... R....

    She sounds like a natural vocalist. Her style is natural as if she was never trained to sing. And she ALWAYS hits her notes dead on. I think she might have perfect pitch.

  28. S.... S....

    A duet with her and Linda Ronstadt would have been soul bending....

  29. J.... B....

    God sure blessed her with a very touching and Beautiful voice. Still great country music in 2019.

  30. R.... E....

    it's not going too happen on here,,

  31. W.... W....

    Always thinking if she's as innocent and pure as she looks and sounds ,the lady is great,

  32. R.... A....

    Wonderful.

  33. B.... M....

    Pure as a silver bell.

  34. L.... T....

    Perfect presentation: you've got to love the bonny dress, the boots, the notes and the girl.

  35. A.... R....

    Awesome

  36. H.... B....

    Put simply, she is quite magnificent. My wife and I met her and the band in Branson, Missouri a few years back. Such a nice lady as were all the band as we lunched together.

  37. J.... R....

    Her voice carries you away to that place 💕🎶

  38. E.... T....

    just beautiful..and the voice of an angel..love her so much..

  39. J.... P....

    A stunning, crystalline pure vocal by Alison Krauss, of course—really the emotional highlight of the concert. The accompaniment of Matt Rollings on piano and Greg Leisz on pedal steel guitar is spot-on perfect in terms of both quantity and quality. A brilliant and rare performance of Rodney Crowell’s moving and beautiful song. It doesn’t get much better.

  40. S.... S....

    Hillary dont sing like that and never has

  41. c.... w....

    Perfect pitch

  42. c.... ....

    WRITTEN BY RODNEY CROWELL WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SONG , ALISON AND EMMYLOU HARRIS VERSION , CLASS 11/10

  48. t.... m....

    even if we could not hear it, it would still be BEAUTIFUL, with the sound of her voice it's ecstasy.

  49. S.... H....

    Voice is terrific, but timing can use some help. Sorry.

    S.... H....

    That's your computer, idiot!

  54. S.... �....

    Anyone know who the pedal-steel player is?

  55. T.... B....

    Beautiful but I prefer performing of Emmylou Harris.

  56. R.... B....

    One Beautiful Voice One Exquisite Piece... The Beauty Of Music.

  57. R.... B....

    Would love to glide upon mother earth under a starry night with a Beautiful Angel. Mahal Kitna.... Baby

  68. D.... A....

    Alison Can Sing My Telephone Book! Love You!!!

  69. F.... E....

    Amazing in every way .

  70. B.... M....

    I've only heard this sung by Waylon Jennings. Alison gives it a completely different feeling. Her voice is so haunting.

    B.... M....

    Willie Nelson

  71. T.... W....

    Emmylou’s version with Linda Ronstadt and Fayssoux Starling on backup vocals is still the gold standard for me

  72. D.... T....

    btw, Matt Rollings on piano ist absolutly perfect!!!!!

  73. G.... E....

    Perfect - as always.

  74. B.... W....

    Love this song

  75. T.... ....

    Still LOVE this song! I got to sing it with Rodney Crowell, (who wrote it), in '99. One of the highlights of my career. I like it by everybody I've ever heard do it. ... Crystal Gayle....Willie Nelson.... Emmylou Harris.... And this incredible young lady!

  76. J.... S....

    When you bypass Emmy Lou & Van; you are some kinda "ON!"

  77. B.... M....

    Very few reach me like Alison Krauss...

  78. w.... p....

    'these are not tears of sorrow i shed; rather tears of joy" -wp

    w.... p....

    Then your missing the point!

  79. u.... ....

    Rodney!!!!

  80. T.... A....

    Only a parent can stay true and be there to help when the turn turns into a spin. I love the message.

  81. A.... D....

    I love great women singers.
    This is waaaay up on the heap of fantastic singing.

  82. A.... H....

    At the time of me posting this there are 120 dislikes for this .........I’m sorry that defies any understanding

  83. G.... C....

    Pure magic. Matchless voice. Perfect diction. Wonderful tone.

  84. Y.... .....

    some how all the stress and tension pain and strain leaves my mind and body when i hear this song from Alison Krauss.

  85. J.... C....

    No one can sing as pure as Allison and I mean no one. God gave us her to please our ears and sooth our souls. Thank you Lord.

  86. J.... m....

    Just now came across it.Herb you put it right.Wish she had it just like that on her own CD.A great rendition with minimal music.

  87. E.... I....

    Beautiful Voice. No one sings like her¡¡

  88. J.... J....

    Honesty and humility, an indomitable combination with added harmony, beautiful xx

  89. M.... T....

    ❤️❤️❤️

  90. K.... E....

    26/06/2019. Anyone else watching with me.

    K.... E....

    I watch this at least 4 times a week, she has such an ethereal quality to her voice. Truly the voice of an angel....

  91. R.... ....

    She is just the best

  92. J.... H....

    I like Alison Krauss, but in this instance it's an example of a singer over -singing the song and taking away the emotion of the song.Listen to Emmylou and compare it to this.

    J.... H....

    Yes I see what you mean. I listened to EH version as you suggested. You seem to be comparing two different things. Like apples and oranges. I see merit in both versions. What other posters seem to getting from AK is this "celestial" quality in her singing - beyond emotion almost. Beyond earth.

  93. c.... ....

    Written by Rodney Crowell What a Beautiful Song , Alison Krauss and Emmylou Harris Version is Most Beautiful

  94. N.... M....

    I was lucky enough to meet her at a concert in Knoxville maybe 10 year ago, and yes she is truly one oh America’s treasures, she always get right me in the feels.

  95. r.... d....

    Boy did she ever sing that, it was beautiful, Love this lady and her music.

  96. J.... G....

    Simply gifted

  97. j.... c....

    Her last cd they used the most expensive mics for her........Shame as she just recorded "you don't know me".
    If Sony RCA or whatever would get it together......we need her to do a duet with the only singer that could sing ballads with such emotion,vocal interpretation......Elvis...she just recorded two of his songs......it would be brilliant......with her delicate voice and his art of the love song.......she has sang with...some not deserving......I did like her duet w/John Waite....missing you...they should have won the Grammy for it.....she is just sublime....my fave.....!!
