Falling in You
©2006 Alex Shapiro
Love and pain can dance
Into the dark
Stepping on each other’s shoes
Seems to be a risky thing
Opening hearts
I guess it’s just a risk we choose
It hurts when you’re away from me
And worse when you’re here
I can never hold you close enough to taste
All the whispers from your spark
Light up my fear
Fantasies are such a waste
I’m falling in you
I’m falling through
A crack in the earth
Where love is rebirth
Worry is a useless job
Endless and dry
Why can’t I just live this life prepared
Every time you drive away
A part of me cries
It scares me that I’m always scared
I’m falling in you
I’m falling through
A piece of your soul
Where true lovers go
How can I do it
Tell me how can I avoid the constant pain
How can I not lose it
When the only way to give my heart
Is giving it away
When the only way to give my heart
Is giving it away
To you
How do people make it work
How do they care
Without being paralyzed by love
Every time I think of you
The demons are there
I’m learning how to empathize
I’m falling in you
I’m falling through
A world with no hurt
A place with good purpose
How can I do it
Tell me how can I avoid the constant pain
How can I not lose it
When the only way to give my heart
Is giving it away
When the only way to give my heart
Is giving it away
To you
Watch the stars appear
One at a time
Suddenly our eyes are filled
That’s the way you’ve come to me
Patient and kind
My reward for sitting still
I’m falling in you
I’m falling through
A hole in the sky
That holds you and
My love for you and
My love for you and
My love for you...
