GOOD TIME TO FALL: Well there I go rambling down Memory Lane | My runaway heart probably thinks I’m insane | ‘Cause I fall in and out of bravery | Oh it’s wicked & wonderful, this anxiety | ‘Cause here we are and I can’t grab a nerve | To tell you what I think we both deserve | It would take only one breath to say it | But these simple words are so complicated | Welcome to the circus inside of my mind | We’re riding the Ferris wheel you & I | With your uncertain heart & your knowing smile | It wouldn’t be too hard to kiss me, while | We’re up so high, we could fall with the stars | Now would be a good time to fall | Some days I see myself in your clever blue eyes | Promises flickerin’ like fireflies | & There my heart goes, stubborn, off on a limb | Boy, it’s bad to play if you don’t let me win, oh| Welcome to the circus inside of my mind | We’re riding the Ferris wheel you & I | With your uncertain heart & your knowing smile | It wouldn’t be too hard to kiss me, while | We’re up so high, we could fall with the stars | Now would be a good time to | Fall not knowing if you’ll catch me | & I know I’m mixing dreams with reality | But if you hold me in your eyes | Maybe you’ll realize | Welcome to the circus inside of my mind | We’re riding the Ferris wheel you & I | With your uncertain heart & your pretty smile | It wouldn't be too hard to kiss me, kiss me | We’re up so high, we could fall with the stars | Now would be a good time to fall, baby fall | Oh, my runaway heart, doesn’t justify my bruises | My puzzlement with love & the energy it uses | To beat so fast when you walk by | Oh runaway heart, could you try? | Stubborn heart, pretty heart | Pretty please could you try? |
