Lyrics Meredith Brooks

Meredith Brooks

Watched You Fall

You were my wild companion

We were forever high, high, high

We burned the night around us

Sleeping could wait until we died

You wear the scars of passion

And since the crashing came

You've broken every promise

I walked away

I watched you fall

I was blind to ya

Was lying to ya

Like everybody else who watched you fall

Say they love you but they're laughing

When you crawl

It's such a weary feeling

When you've been stealing from yourself

Wishing the world away

Blaming someone else

No one can do this for you

Straighten your head, fix your faith

Take all the pain inside you

Wash it away

Did I hear you, did I try

Can I forgive myself for not standing by

I was blind to ya

Was lying to you

Said I love you but I'm laughing

When you crawl

Was lying to ya

You fall

I watched you fall

I watched you
