JPF Home Page Forums Lyric and MP3 Feedback Lyric Feedback Forum 3 When The Falling Stops

I was asked to rustle up some lyrics for a band of teenaged (and pre-teen) sisters. Their stuff seems remarkably mature for their ages yet still reflects the innocence of youth. I thought maybe this hook may serve their interests. I'd be curious if any of you agree.

When The Falling Stops
© 2010 Greg Swartzentruber

You led me here to leap from mountain highs
I held back cuz I’ve been burned by guys
Who could talk the talk, but they told lies
But I know now how a bird feels when it flies

When the falling starts
It’s the coolest rush
These cupid darts
Can’t get enough
It’s quite a plunge
From the mountain tops
But what do we do
When the falling stops

So now I’ve given in, we’re hand in hand
Base jumping from the peak so high and grand
But now I see the fast approaching land
What's next is something I don’t understand

When the falling starts
It’s the coolest rush
These cupid darts
Can’t get enough
It’s quite a plunge
From the mountain tops
But what do we do
When the falling stops

I love this feeling when I’m falling down
Wind whips through my hair with a mighty sound
Being here with you makes my heart pound
What happens when we finally hit the ground

Bridge~
I trust you are going to treat me right
Don’t let me crash to earth like some old stone
We’re all wrapped up in our lover’s flight
How do we walk again now that we’ve flown

When the falling starts
It’s the coolest rush
These cupid darts
Can’t get enough
It’s quite a plunge
From the mountain tops
But what do we do
When the falling stops

Self-serving bump :-)
