When was the first time
I walked a mile
To be the first one
To see you smile?
When was the first time
That we made love
To each other with open eyes?
Close your eyes girl
I'd like to think that you've given me everything I need.
When was the first time
You saw me fall a mile
Just to make you
Shut your eyes?
So will you stand
Under my growing shadow
And try to break my fall?
Or will you stand
In a crowd with your head
Buried in your hands to watch me?
Watch me now
Watch me fall 10 stories
Oh baby shake shake at the knees
Watch me kiss the concrete
Oh baby scream in disbelief
Baby twist and shout an agony
Because the last time
I couldn't stand to see
Your head buried
In your hands
This is the last thing
You want me to say
But let me make
Something perfectly clear
I'd rather give up
And jump than give
Into the thought of
Killing you again
