AND WE FALL

Intro:
Promises are hard to keep
She falls in love three times a week
And when she falls it’s always deeper
Than the time before
Easier said and harder done
To love one only, only one
Sometimes head and heart succumb
To heaven in the making
ref.:
And we fall, after being warned and told
After all, the days and nights of hot and cold
Knowing calls for closing eyes and healing words
I’ll love you forever
Beholding to the heart in dreams
We fall in love with love, it seems
Believing in those movie scenes
And the happily ever after
Well some go on and some remain
In the winning losing loving game
And who we hurt in love’s name
It haunts us in our dreaming
ref.:
And we fall, after being warned and told
After all, the days and nights of hot and cold
Knowing calls for closing eyes and healing words
I’ll love you forever
Through the door and down the aisle
Through the mind’s eye the years and miles
And tell me dear, do you still smile
’Cause this is how you’ve spent your life tonight
And we fall
Over and over we fall
ref.:
And we fall, after being warned and told
After all, the days and nights of hot and cold
Knowing calls for closing eyes and healing words
I’ll love you forever
