Falling

FALLING Heads over heels Like I am on love prescription pills I am crazy about this lady And the thought of that kills I need your time and affection But all I get is rejection Your beauty fills me with wonder Like lightening blots and thunder I am falling and my feet is in the air Coming down with despair Without my silver wings Or my angel over here At a high velocity I am sure to reach eternity Before my head strikes the ground You have turned my life up side down And made it spin round and round Like a Merry go round Or some kind of an Extra Terrestrial saucer I cannot eat or drink even water Love is so cruel So I shall challenge him to a duel I pray not for fatality But my anger preaches mortality I strucked him with the first blow And he falls down slow But my anger only made matters worse So I had to let her go If she 's yours she will come back to you Says Mercury’s little voice But she is beautiful and intelligent probably has a greater choice Off she goes with a Jewish Croesus While I still call on Jesus A poor man’s predicament So off I go for a Holy Sacrament I prayed and prayed and I fasted for years Till I met a common peasant girl who dried up my tears But after two decades there comes Eva I told myself it is rather late than never But what will I do with my country lady whom I took for a wife? I told Eva to let me be because I already have a life By Olusegun Akanbi
