Lyrics

Falling

High above the midway lights

High above the rides, you, me and the sky

The whole world looks small tonight

And you said we could never really fly

Well if you're right and we're nothing at all

Tell me, why did I keep thinking 'bout your calling

If you're right and we're nothing at all

Tell me, why do you keep thinking that you're falling

Swaying, sighing at the sky-wheel top

Then you say that I could never make you mine

The lights, springs, constellations will turn and stop

Kiss me once again and change your mind

If you're right and we're nothing at all

Tell me, why did I keep thinking 'bout your calling

If you're right and we're nothing at all

Tell me, why do you keep thinking that you're falling

Falling

Falling

If you're right and we're nothing at all

Tell me, why did I keep thinking 'bout your calling

If you're right and we're nothing at all

Tell me, why do you keep thinking that you're falling

If you're right, yeah, tell me why

If you're right and we're nothing at all

Tell me, why do you keep thinking that you're falling

Falling
