The Fall

I see the early glow, I hear you say hello
I watch the shadows fall, I don't see you at all

It's a lie  (I don't believe it's so)
It's a lie

I see the autumn rain, falling on my window pane
I hear you say goodbye, I see a tear in your eye

It's a lie - I don't believe it's so
it's a lie -
Our love couldn't go wrong, how could I know?
I was only dreaming
And now, now that you're gone, I will go on
Really believing - I take the fall

I see you slip away, into another day
There's no one else around, I watch the sun go down

It's a lie (I don't believe it's so)
it's a lie -
Our love couldn't go wrong, how could I know?
I was only dreaming
And now, now that you're gone, I will go on
Really believing - I take the fall

I see you in a dream, you turn and start to go
I call to you once more, guess that I'm takin' the fall.

It's a lie - I don't believe it's so
it's a lie -
Our love couldn't go wrong, how could I know?
I was only dreaming
And now, now that you're gone, I will go on
Really believing - I take the fall
