I wish that I had told you, while you were still awake...
Gravity
@ Lisa Venkatrathnam
Arranged by Keith Stacey Rowe
The moon is painting pictures on the wall
Above the pillow where you sleep
A silent movie where the hero always wins
Just like I hope for you and me
Sometimes I wish that love was black and white
And not this mystery in between
A place where anger, fear and longing collide
Within the orbit of our dreams
So many forces, who can explain?
I wish that I had told you, while you were still awake
I didn’t believe in gravity
Until you grabbed a hold of me
So hold on, hold on
In the push and pull of everyday
I’m scared that we might blow away
So hold on, hold on
And I’ll hold on to you
I want to tell you that I’m sorry
For words that would not come out right
Sometimes my heart is lost and spinning around
In the centrifuge of life
Too many forces, who can explain?
I wish that I had told you, while you were still awake
I didn’t believe in gravity
Until you grabbed a hold of me
So hold on, hold on
In the push and pull, the tug of life
I want to make it through tonight
So hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on
And I’ll hold on to you
