The Fall

I saw you standing there, on your own.
I had to stare, if only I'd known.

I was so scared, I felt a fear.
Would you care when I was near?

I stared so hard, all I could do.
I couldn't get that close to you.

My hands were cold, my heart was pounding.
I felt so old, where I was standing.

You danced with grace, my feet are lead.
You touched my face,
my world stoppped dead...

I need to talk, I need to cry.
You'll be the answer when I ask why.

Someone to hold until the light
when nights are cold, you'll do it right.

My hands were cold, my heart was pounding.
I felt so old, where I was standing.

I need to talk, I need to cry.
You'll be the answer when I ask why.
Someone to hold until the light
When nights are cold, you'll do it right.
A beating heart, a gentle hand
A place to make my final stand
To feel your lips, to touch your skin
To hear your heart, the life within
With sun in the sky, how can I fly
When my world stops dead?
