Reason
To tell you a story
Is to tell you what real
What’s real is the thing
That you need to feel
Real is this something
What falls in my heart
Real is the reason
My wings fell apart
See the fallings not bad
It’s the landing that hurt
The truth was the thing
That was soft as this dirt
That’s where I landed
When you saw me fall
You asked me why
And it made me feel small
I told you the reason
But you couldn’t see why
So I get up from falling
To look in your eyes
Darling just think
Your love is my call
That is the reason
I always do fall
Simple as that
So now you can see
I’d fall forever
If you’d just be with me
