STOP ME WHEN I'M FALLING

Stop me when I'm falling
For that same old story
That same old line
Wanting her to adore me
So I rush right in
When I should take my time

Blinded by the light of wishes
Leading me to places
I've too often been
Being far too injudicious
With my heart and all
I claim to believe in
Oh stop me falling

Oh stop me falling
When my heart's calling
I should have learnt by now to read the signs
Facing the heartache
Risking the heartbreak
The best and worst of times

Oh hear me calling
When I'm falling
Wake me from the deepest sleep
Stop me falling
Please hear me calling
Before I'm in too deep

Wanting her to adore me
So I rush right in
When I should take my time
Blinded by the light of wishes
Leading me to places
I've too often been
