Fall Natural
I did something I was supposed to do.
I went and tripped and fell for you.
You were strong and I was weak for you,
did what any other girl would do.
Can't feel foolish when I fall.
Falling for you comes natural.
You were rough around the edges,
confident and independent.
I was sheltered, young and naive,
seeing stars when you saw something in me.
Tried to stop it, but how could I help it?
There's no going against the grain once you've felt it.
Can't stand up straight once I fall.
Seems to me, falling comes natural.
Natural to fall for you at least...
Tell me, did you at least trip for me?
