Lea Salonga - FALLIN' lyrics

(marvin hamlisch/carole bayer sager)

I'm afraid to fly

And I don't know why

I'm jealous of the people who

Are not afraid to die

It's just that I recall

Back when I was small

Someone promised that they'd catch me

And then they let me fall

And now I'm fallin'

Fallin' fast again

Why do I always take a fall

When I fall in love

You'd think by now I'd learn

Play with fire you get burned

But fire can be oh so warm

And that's why I return

Turn and walk away

That's what I should do

My head says go and find the door

My heart says I've found you

And now I'm fallin'

Fallin' fast again

Why do I always take a fall

When I fall in love

Help me I'm fallin'

Fallin' fast again

Why do I always take a fall

When I fall in love

(it always turns out the same

When I fall)

Lovin' someonelosin' myself

Only got me to blame

Help me I'm fallin'

Fallin'

Catch me if you can

Maybe this time I'll have it all

Maybe I'll make it after all

Maybe this time I won't fall

When I fall in love
