I Fall to You

by Bob Lind

on Best Of (1993)

Resting like the moon across the sky
My mind looks up as thoughts of you go by
Your eyes come flying bright against the wind
I'm building up my walls to keep my freedom in
But it all falls dead at my feet
Each time we meet
No matter what I do
I fall to you.

I latch and lock the doors of every day
To try again to mean the things I say
Thoughts of you come crashing through my solitude
And the walls I thought were strong break down and let them through
And it all falls hard to the ground
My head spins around
My shield snaps in two
I fall to you.

Rivers rush and flood my weary shores
I'm drunk on dreams of you, I can't get off the floor
Your shadows move around me and they call my bluff
Just when I think I've built my mountain high enough
It all falls in spite of itself
I laugh at myself
I'm too weak to fight
Your eyes are too bright
Why deny that it's true?
I fall to you.
