Help Me Fall a Little Farther
© 2005 Diane Waters, Gary Baker, Walt Aldridge


I'VE BEEN BANGED UP, KNOCKED DOWN, BEATEN BY LOVE
BEEN SO LOW THAT I COULDN'T SEE UP
PROMISED MYSELF THAT I'D NEVER GO BACK TO HELL AGAIN

I'VE SEEN NIGHTS SO LONELY I WANTED TO DIE
DAYS SO LONG THAT I'D GIVEN UP TRYING
TOSSIN LIKE A TUMBLEWEED IN THE TUSCON WIND

BUT TONIGHT WITH YOU, I'M CLOSE TO BEING FREE
JUST HOLD ME TIGHT AND DONÃ?Â?Ã?Â?T GIVE UP ON ME

(CHORUS)
HELP ME FALL A LITTLE FARTHER
HELP ME LET GO OF THE PAST
BE PATIENT WITH MY BROKEN HEART
DON'T TAKE ME THERE TO FAST
IÃ?Â?Ã?Â?VE BEEN WANDERING THROUGH THE DESERT
AND I'M DYING FOR THIS WATER
BUT BEFORE MY LIPS CAN DRINK YOU IN
HELP ME FALL A LITTLE FARTHER

I COULD DIM THE LIGHTS AND OPEN SOME WINE
CONVINCE MYSELF TO CROSS THAT LINE
BUT I WANT THIS TIME TO BE THE TIME THAT LASTS FOR ME

THERE'S A PART OF ME STILL AFRAID TO BE WRONG
I NEED A MAN WHO'S PATIENT AND STRONG
WHO WOULD WAIT FOR ME FOREVER IF THAT'S WHAT I NEED

I KNOW I'LL GET THERE BUT BEFORE I DO
I WANT TO KNOW I'M GIVING ALL OF ME TO YOU

(CHORUS)

(Bridge)
ON A MAGIC NIGHT LIKE THIS
MAYBE ONE MORE TENDER KISS
IS ALL I NEED
TO MAKE MY HEART BELIEVE

(CHORUS)
