Help me to Fall


I didn't really see you
When I met you
No, I didn't really see you
Not at all
The image that I made
Obscured you
The image I made
Wasn't you at all

But then we spoke
And didn't stop
I hoped we'd never
I looked
Into your eyes your heart
And wished it for forever
And wondered why
It took so long to start

You were just a friend till then
Nothing more and nothing less
I didn't know, couldn't know
Nor could I even guess
What was in store for me
What was to occur
What love I'd find
What love I'd give
What lines love could blur

Until I got to know you
And then I fell
So...

Chorus:
Help me to fall in love again
Again in love with you
I don't need you to love me
What I really need
Is for me to love you

And though we were the best of friends
I wanted more
It was the old story over again
Waiting for the happy ending
Waiting for my spirits to soar

I always did the chasing
Two steps too late
Two steps behind
Always catching up to fate
Wondering why
I was left behind

But then you finally listened
Finally heard, turned around
Saw what you never did before
Came to me without a sound

You wondered
Why you did not see before
What was always there
You slowed
To walk beside me
Nothing to declare
You placed your hand in mine
And that was all
And together we have passed the time
So...

Chorus

It was all tumbles
In the beginning
Free falling through midair
But romance and hearts
Were never required
It would have been nice
But I just didn't care
It was enough to have you there

But now I feel I'm slipping away
Out from your embrace
I try to hold on
But I just can't help
The look that graces my face
So...

Chorus

All I really wanted was you
All I ever really wanted was you
All I ever really want is you

So...

Chorus
