Falling Down Lyrics by Holly Cole

Temptation

0

[Verse 1]
I've come five hundred miles just to see your halo
Come from St. Petersburg, Scarlett and me
When I open my eyes, I was blind as can be
And to give a man luck, he must fall in the sea
[Pre-Chorus]
And she wants you to steal and get caught
For she loves you for all that you are not
[Chorus]
When you're falling down, falling down
When you're falling down, falling down, falling down
[Verse 2]
You forget all the roses don't come around on Sunday
She's not gonna choose you for standing so tall
Go on take a swig of that poison and like it
And now don't ask for silverware, don't ask for nothing
[Pre-Chorus]
Go on and put your ear to the ground
You know you'll be hearing that sound, falling down
[Chorus]
You're falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down
When you're falling down, falling down, falling down
[Verse 3]
Go on down see that wrecking ball come swing in on her now
Everyone knew that hotel was a goner
They broke all the windows and took all the door knobs
And they hauled it away in a couple of days
[Pre-Chorus]
Now someone yelled timber, take off your hat
We all look smaller down here on the ground
[Chorus]
When you're falling down, falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down
[Chorus]
Someone's falling down, falling down, falling down
Falling down, falling down
Falling down
