Lyrics Don't Want To Fall - The Narrative

Don't Want To Fall

This is a decision that I know full well I made
I remind myself as I’m walking up to your gate
And through the wire diamonds I can see your shape
You’re fumbling around with your keys
You say we can sit and stay but I’m trouble keeping up with you pleasantries
Don’t you find them unsettling, can we go walking?
That’s probably a good idea;
yeah It’s probably a good idea
'Cause I don’t want to fall in love with you again
I’m so afraid I’m capable of it
And after time I can’t accept you’re still the song on my breath
You’re not easy to forget
Moving in rhythm, footsteps aligned
I’m doing okay 'till your arm brushes mine and then I panic
I thought I figured it out, but I’m taken aback
As we pass the closing stores and lit up cafes
There are so many of them these days;
so many strangers.
Their walking around
in our place, in our place
And suddenly it’s all unclear;
yeah suddenly it’s all unclear
Yeah this probably was a bad idea;
yeah this probably was a bad idea
'Cause I don’t want to fall in love with you again
I’m so afraid I’m capable of it
And after time I can’t accept you’re still the song on my breath
You’re not easy to forget
We used to own these streets, head to head, you spinning me
And now we say that we were young, and what we had has come and gone
We used to own these streets, head to head, you spinning me
Your back’s against a concrete wall
Your body buzzing on the intercom, the intercom, the intercom, the intercom
We woke the neighbors, it’s no wonder they hate us, on every single floor
