If I had to choose one Person to keep from Falling off the earth to Stay here with me I'd hold on to you my Foot tied to a tree you'd Bid farewell to falling friends I'd Fasten you to me Fasten you to me Held down by the roots of a tree The air would settle down Our feet would meet the ground You'd find that I was not so frightened We would get along You would sing me songs And I would think of gentle harmonies Carried by the breeze We'd get mad and take it out on one another Just 'cause there'd be no one else around I would want to fight you even though you're much bigger You would laugh until I settled down I would say you're lucky I calmed down You'd wait till my senses came around If I had to choose one Person to keep from Falling off the earth to Stay here with me I'd hold on to you my Foot tied to a tree you'd Bid farewell to falling friends I'd Fasten you to me Fasten you to me Fasten you to me I'd fasten you to me Fasten you to me Held down by the roots of a tree
