Parachutes

Years and years go by With her eyes down in front of her Fears, he's wasting his time Waiting for life to occur They need a shake up Break from the normal Foreign encounter Smoke on their trails Raising goosebumps Like a profession Nerve endings on fire With every touch I'm falling for you She says as he's diving I'm calling for you To pull the cord If he could be The one that she needs She knows they'd live in harmony If she could see The world at her feet He knows they'd find the key But as time goes on The feelings, they fade with every fight All those times, done wrong They had to escape to feel alright Tears and tears she cries When her life, it falls apart Fears, he kept his inside Never giving her his heart They hit a wall (Wall) That's how they all, all fall They couldn't stay (Stay) That's how they all end up this way The piles of make-up Spread on the counter The scent of perfume Left in her trail No more attention Displayed affection Nerve endings misfire Without her touch I'm falling for you He says as she's driving I'm calling for you To pull the cord If he could be The one that she needs She knows they'd live in harmony If she could see The world at her feet He knows they'd find the key But as time goes on The feelings, they fade with every fight All those times, done wrong They had to restart to get things right
