Lyrics

THEY FELL L.Flowers/S.Jacobson
VERSE#1
As the sun scorched down on the old oak tree
Out back by the winding creek
Bobby and Sarah squealed and laughed
Playing hide & seek
Bobby tripped on an old truck tire
Wrapped with a frayed piece of rope
He tied the tire to the tree and they both hung on
Swinging higher and higher till it broke

CHORUS :
They fell
Didn?t have time to catch their breath
And when the world stopped spinning
They laid there grinning
Still holding each other tight
They fell

VERSE #2:
As the moon shone down on the old oak tree
They cooled off in the winding creek
18 years they?d just been friends
But tonight his legs were weak
Bobby took hold of Sarah?s hand
And asked if she was sure
Stroked her hair as she melted in his arms
He kissed her then kissed her once more

CHORUS :
They fell
Didn?t have time to catch their breath
And when the world stopped spinning
They laid there grinning
Still holding each other tight
They fell

BRIDGE:
Now Bobby watches Sarah swing their grandkids
Under that old oak tree
He closes his eyes and goes back in time
To his favourite memories
When .....

CHORUS :
