why do i keep running through these paces i close my eyes and see how the story goes little lies that friday night erases dawn is a dagger that finds me alone tell me why i keep stumbling through these places why cant i just leave well enough alone all the while i search through strangers faces looking for something i might call my own i want a love that can lift me above and up onto the edge of it all i long so much for the tumbling rush of it i wanna know know what it feels like to fall what if i might be too afraid to face it and at closing time i let you slip away oh let me try give me courage give me graces to look into your eyes and somehow to say i want a love that can lift me above and up onto the edge of it all i long so much for the tumbling rush of it i wanna know know what it feels like to i want a love that can lift me above and up onto the edge of it all i long so much for the tumbling rush of it i wanna know know what it feels like to fall from the face of it far from the safety net i want a love i dont care if its dangerous i know my stranger is out there and waiting and thinking the same thing and singing the same refrain i want a love that can lift me above and up onto the edge of it all i long so much for the tumbling rush of it i wanna know i wanna know i want a love that can lift me above and up onto the edge of it all i long so much for the tumbling rush of it i wanna know know what it feels like to fall know what it feels like to fall
