Falling In/ Falling Down is a song that I wrote for Christy. (There is a LIVE version of it on my MYSPACE...the studio version will be on my next record)
I wrote this song on piano because I wanted it to be different from all of my other music; I wanted it to be unique like the love I feel for Christy.
The song is about how we, having both been destroyed by love in the past, feel about being together. I wanted to write down exactly how it feels to be with each other now, armed with the comfort of knowing that we are through with heartache - we are both finished falling in and then out of love; falling down and being hurt.
Falling In/Falling Down
I was knocking on your door
You were brave enough to let me in
These guarded hearts were sore
From the beating in our chests
Heavy with the weight of days gone wrong
Added with pain of oh, so long
Worn on our faces
I can see now we’re done taking turns
Falling in and falling down
We’ve both been here before
Wearing winter all year round
When love is frozen to the core
It won’t make a sound
But I hear cracking in the ice
So I wait around
And take the good advice
Of a friend I have found
Won’t it be nice?
I can see now we’re done taking turns
Falling in and falling down
