"I Wish That I Could Fall" lyrics

"I Wish That I Could Fall"
(originally by Jamie Paige)

To spend a moment at your beck and call
Oh, I would give my world to you
I live my life in simple repetition
But I would start again if it did you right
Oh, I spend my days my fists against this wall
But not a single sound seems to make it through
Count on my fingers all the grand admissions
And I can't make it through a single time
All I wanna do is to do you right

I wish that I could climb to the greatest heights
All the world beneath me when I meet your eye

I wish that I could fall a little bit harder
I wish that I could fall, like it would even matter
I wish that I could fall right into your life
But I'm not there at all, on the other side

I wish that I could fall and hit the ground running
I wish that I could fall instead of doing nothing
I wish that I could fall right between your eyes
But you just stand so tall, I'm left out of sight

I wish that I could fall somewhere that it won't hurt

Awake uneasy when the morning calls
Oh, I would give my world to you
I life my life in simple repetition
But I can barely call what I live my life
All I wanna do is to do you right
Hold up two fingers, check my double vision
Beside myself again, beaten black and blue
Without a purpose, I'm an apparition
But I could be your sword, you could hold me tight
All I wanna do is to do you right

I wish that I could fly with these broken wings
If it was meant for you, I'd do anything

I wish that I could fall a little bit harder
I wish that I could fall, like it would even matter
I wish that I could fall right into your life
But I'm not there at all, on the other side

I wish that I could fall and see the sky clearly
I wish that I could fall, not miss the ground completely
I wish that I could fall somewhere close to you
But I don't land at all, drifting out of view

I wish that I could fall, but only truly backwards
Right into your arms

A fire lit within my chest
My heart's been burnt and wholly dispossessed
(These barely-blinking eyes that refuse to cry)
Oh, what I wouldn't give to stay
To have my joy and sorrow cast away
But even if my wings have been set alight
All that I can do is to learn to fly
All I wanna do is to do you right

I wish that I could fall a little bit harder
I wish that I could fall, like it would even matter
I wish that I could fall right into your life
But I'm not there at all, on the other side

I wish that I could fall and hit the ground running
I wish that I could fall instead of doing nothing
I wish that I could fall right between your eyes
But you just stand so tall, I'm left out of sight

I wish that I could fall, but only truly backwards
Right into your arms
Your arms
Your arms!
