Sheila Kaufman songs
This was the last one we did for FAWM, February Album Writing Month, and by the time it was finished I was too tired to remember to post it on that site, but I'm happy to be able to post it here for my Ramp Family. Your opinions would be Very welcome.
This is an updated version, down a step...
I'm Falling
Music by Lee James McAboy
Lyrics and vocals by Sheila Kaufman
Whenever I look at you,
Whenever I hear your name,
From the vertigo that I feel
I think I'm falling.
I stand on a precipice,
A canyon of deep desire,
Afraid to be looking down
Into my heart.
Just like a tightrope I'm walking
I keep balancing in the air.
I think I'm falling - I think I'm falling.
If there's a net I don't see one,
And if I come crashing down,
Will you be there?
My heart says ask you,
My mind says don't even dare - just don't dare.
If I take that chance
I'll know by your glance
If I'm driving you away.
You could be my friend forever
Like you've been for oh, so long,
If you turn away and leave me now
I don't know if I'm that strong
If I take a deep breath and I step off the ledge to thin air
Will you catch me if I'm falling
Will you catch me if I'm falling
Will you catch me if I'm falling
In love with you?
Whenever I think of you,
Whenever I hear your voice,
From the giddiness that I feel
I know I'm falling.
I stand on a precipice,
A canyon of deep desire,
Afraid to be looking down
Into your heart.
Just like a tightrope I'm walking
I keep balancing in the air.
I think I'm falling - I think I'm falling
If there's a net I don't see one
And if I come crashing down
Will you be there?
Will you be there?
Will you be there?
This is an updated version, down a step...
