If You Fall Apart

Jake Allen


There's a little piece of knowing in your eye
It calls out to me, it sees beyond the need
For the artificial dance we all provide
The roles that we play to communicate

Seems we finally found a place where we could shine
A future in view, I stood next to you
But a disbelief developed in your mind
And you've chosen to trust your reckless wanderlust

But I haven't much to say to you
'Cause you're following your heart
I just hope that I can be there to pick you up
If you fall apart

And so your independence carries you away
From all that we've built but you've pushed away the guilt
And you know I'm gonna love you either way
You'll be in my song to carry me along

But I haven't much to say to you
'Cause you're following your heart
I just hope that I can be there to pick you up
If you fall apart
It's a long road that you're traveling
Where you're feet don't touch the ground
But there's very little reasoning if any at all
Turning back around

And it's funny you say that your soul isn't there
When all others see is this light that you bare
And the song that you've sung is still thick in the air
Changing what is there

But I haven't much to say to you
'Cause you're following your heart
I just hope that I can be there to pick you up
If you fall apart
It's a long road that you're traveling
With your head up in the clouds
But there's very little reasoning if any at all

Turning back around
Turning back around
Turning back around
Turning back around
