Fall Of Faith


Fall Of Faith, have you ever tried that?
Where you fall backwards and have faith that your partner will catch you?
Well, he's not the most serious person
And I've been dropped before.
But I'd trust him to catch me.
And now I'm falling only in slower motion.
But this time I don't think he's behind me,
And I don't think he knows that I'm falling.
So I'll fall on my back, gladly for him.
Like I've done hundreds of times before
And he doesn't know I'm falling,
Falling for him that is.
When it's his turn to fall, I'll catch him.
When his pain is too hard to bear, I'll accept it.
When a woman who doesn't love him in return breaks his heart,
And he feels betrayed,
I'll be there to catch him.
Even though he's not here to catch me now.
And even though I know this last fall might be the one that I can't stand up from,
I'll fall for him.
In my eyes, this is the ultimate
