Oh my dear I feared I fell too early
I had hoped to see what was just past the edge
Now I know I've lost control entirely
I could have long ago since fled
But I have heard you call my name so sweetly
I have felt an ache in me quieted
Whatever I am I'm yours completely
I will accept no other in your stead
As I fall I fall
Deeper and closer to you
With every gain I gain more to lose
As I fall from what I know and what I've known to be true
I fall deeper and closer to you
I fall deeper and closer
Your eye has measured heights of stone and iron
Each corner of the earth will bear your tread
You don't seem to fear the dark inside of me
I have left little enough unsaid
As I fall I fall
Deeper and closer to you
With every gain I gain more to lose
As I fall from what I know and what I've known to be true
I fall deeper and closer to you
I fall deeper and closer
Oh my darling I know
When I'm scared I drag my feet
And it all falls to you just like you're used to
I don't want to be that weak
So if you'll reach out to me I will fall
I'll fall I will fall
Deeper in love with you
There is nothing else I can do
As I fall from what I've known and what I've known to be true
I fall deeper in love with you
I fall deeper in love with
