I have been to close To that flame of desire I have spoken too soon Words full of fire full of fire I have fallen too fast From the top of the tree Bruised by every branch Never landing on my feet on my feet Like a fool I'm willing To take that fall again Don't let me fall too fast I want to fall slowly I want my fall to last I want my fall to last I have drawn too much From that fountain of tears And I drowned many times I was warned but didn't hear didn't hear I have spoke too much From a pipe made of bones I will hide for awhile Then will tumble like a stone Like a stone Like a fool I'm willing To take that fall again Don't let me fall too fast I want to fall slowly I want my fall to last I want my fall to last I want my fall to last Now I'm flying too high With these wings made of wax And I'm bound for the plane But I wont turn back wont turn back Don't let me fall too fast I want to fall slowly I want to fall slowly I want to fall slowly
