Falling Backwards
by The Blackthorn Project

Album: Reckless

why must I think we'll negotiate
why must I think that you hold my fate
dangling
by a string
worn and frayed

I used to think it was all mapped out
while I stayed the course you rethought the route
and I lost you good
tried to sort it out
alone

but now you're here
an old lost love re-found
when you found me
my better days rewound
I need your love more
than I need to know your ways
so if I could I would fall backwards

before the day that the war was launched
I think there was a time of unbroken trust

before I learned to protect myself
I think there was a time I was something else

who would never trade
a life that's beautiful
for one that's safer

but now you're here
an old lost love re-found
when you found me
my better days rewound
I need your love more
than I need my hiding place
so if I could I would fall backwards
