Falling Lyrics by Orphan Egg

Orphan Egg

1968

[Verse 1]
I overheard them while lying awake last night
They thought I was fast asleep
One of them laughed at me lying there in my bed
And said, "Tomorrow, he'll be dead"

[Verse 2]
Next day, I woke up and looked at the rain outside
Hoping I'd see it tomorrow
I hoped that I would not die 'til the night had come
I wanted to see the fading sun

[Bridge]
I walked down to a place in a forest
I laid down in the shadow of a tree
I closed my eyes and laughed at the stillness
The stillness was all and laughed back at me

[Verse 3]
Suddenly, I found mysеlf in a car in town
I saw her walking back to her home
Hеr eyes reflected my own and it all was dark
Nothing saw nothing and came apart

[Bridge]
I rose up and looked back at my body
Cold gray prison melting back to clay
Something is moving somewhere in the grayness
Someone is singing that the word is gray

[Verse 4]
One of them spoke through the stillness and called my name
I opened my eyes to night and day
Asking the way to describe the man, I declined
There is no way you can make me say
