Lyrics Steve Earle

Steve Earle

When I Fall

Late at night on some dark deserted highway

On my way to another lonesome town

I thought I might see the first light of a new day

As it lay like fool's gold on the ground

But whenever I'm feelin' low

I won't have to cry alone I know

'cause you will answer when I call

If I soar above the clouds and then

I come crashin' back to earth again

You will catch me when I fall

All these years I've watched you trip and stumble

There were times that I feared that you were lost

But every tear that I dried after you tumbled

Comes to mind when I'm considerin' the cost

In my heart there's a place for you to run to

Anytime you're tired and hurt and blue

For my part I have only to remind you

You will find me waiting when you do
