Lyrics
It was the winter of ninteen-something
the night was shining, baby, on you
We met down at the blues-club hangout
where they sang no love . . . was ever true
But you were something to see in the moonlight
You were something to hold . . .
You were someone to laugh with, baby --
Laughter immune to growing old . . .
And it never grew old . . .
And I knew I was falling, falling
Knew I was falling, baby for you
I knew I was falling, falling --
Knew I was falling baby, for you
Love held sway and we danced through college
they called us the Mild Ones, married too soon
While the others were changing partners, we waltzed in tune . . .
Then the Christmas-times kept a-passing --
a boy and a girl came, so tall and true
I'm so proud of our children right now . . .
I hope they'll be . . . proud of me too
And I know they knew . . .
That their father was falling, falling
Always kept falling, baby for you
All along he was falling, falling . . .
Always been falling, baby, for you
But should I have seen the writing
painted on this wall?
I never thought this flesh and blood
Would stub its toe and fall . . . so soon
Now it's the winter of two-oh-something . . .
Somehow, I never felt more alive
It's not salvation that I've been craving --
just want to survive
But if I can't make the heavens hold back --
or can't make the devil draw in his lines
Rest assured if the worst does happen --
I'll spend that long night, with dreams so fine . . .
Of your love and mine
And you know I'll be falling, falling --
always be falling, baby, for you
I will ever be falling, falling --
Ever be falling, baby, for you
I wil ever be falling, falling . . .
Forever falling . . .for you
