Mary Gauthier - Long Way to Fall Lyrics
when I found the nerve to meet your eyes, so greenI stumbled towards your eleganceI tumbled, wide awake into a dreamand there you stood, so beautifuldestiny seduces, after allI fell into the firethat's a long way to fallYou gave me strength to speakwhen my voice was weak and words were hard to findyour faith in me was solid andit stood me up when I couldn't steady mineall those times I cried at nightyou promised me it'd be all rightyou held me while my demons danced and crawledI fell into your open armsthat's a long way to fallA long way to falla long way to fallI never should have driftedI never should have left you all aloneI don't know what comes over melooks like I'll always bethe troubled kid that runs away fromhomeI reached for you the other nightyou rolled away and moved against the wallI fell into the space between usthat's a long way to fallA long way to falla long way to fallI got no one to hold on to andI'm sinking slowly to my kneesI might learn to pray down hereor maybe I'll beg you baby, pleasebut you stare at me with marble eyesand I don't think I've everfelt this smallI've fallen out of your good gracesthat's a long way to fallA long way to fall, a long way to falla long way to fall, a long way to fall
