Michael W. Smith's song 'All You're Missin' Is a Heartache' warns against the allure of worldly temptations that promise fulfillment but lead only to pain. The lyrics contrast the deceptive appeal of the 'in crowd' with the reality of heartache and regret that follows chasing after empty pursuits. The song encourages listeners to recognize that what glitters is not gold and that giving in to pride and darkness offers nothing of value. It's a straightforward message about the consequences of straying from wisdom and the futility of seeking satisfaction apart from God.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
It's over the line- a shadow of doubt
From outside looking at the "In Crowd"
(Tempting voices are calling you)
They look mighty fine- a sight to behold
But all that glitters is not gold
(Still those voices are calling you)
Chorus:
All you're missin' is a heartache
A disillusion for a keepsake
A life of living with you own mistake
All You're missin' is a heartache
The water is high-you're out on a limb
Well, if you take the fall then it's "sink or swim"
(Clouds of reason will follow you0
You're kissing the dark
You're courting your pride
You wonder is it greener on the other side
(But they have nothing to offer you)
Tag:
All you're missin', missin' is a heartache
All you're missin', missin, is a heartache
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
