Falling

I'm losing my balance now
All the way down
It's taking its toll
I'm losing control
And it's because I'm falling... I'm falling (x2)
.............................................................................
Our first encounter, I became instantly attracted
Her smile struck me, and I was forever distracted
I tried to avoid these feelings before they could really start
Because there's not many remedies for a broken heart
But the gleam in your eyes doesn't make it fair
In my world we would make the ultimate pair
But these vivid fantasies would all be bleak
If a life with me isn't something you seek
...............................................................................
I'm losing my balance now
All the way down
It's taking its toll,
I'm losing control
And it's because I'm falling.... I'm falling
.............................................................................
Falling in love feels like a sin
Because it tears me apart from within
I constantly fear of falling too deep
Because your heart is something that I can't reach
And I'm sure you're in love with somebody else
It destroys me, I wonder if you could tell
Because you're the most beautiful thing I ever saw
I limit eye contact so you don't see my flaws
But know everytime that I make you laugh
I envision our relationship going a different path
These feelings have me losing grip on reality
Before I fall, can somebody please save me
...............................................................................
I'm losing my balance now
All the way down
It's taking its toll,
I'm losing control
And it's because I'm falling.... I'm falling
............................................................................
I know I'll be nothing more than a friend
So why the hell can't I stop this descent
Why can't I stop falling in love with you
Why when we talk, I don't know what to do
We cant be together, so why do I struggle
This conflict is to difficult for me to juggle
I need someone to stop me from hitting the abyss
There's got to be an easier answer than this
Your space in my mind refuses me peace
Catching feelings is the worst kind of disease
Your presence has fully covered me like a glove
I can't deny it anymore, I've fallen in love
