Lyrics

On a Mon day I am wait ing.

And by Wed n’sday I can’t sleep.

When the phone rings, I hear you.

And the dark ness is a clear view ’cause you’ve (Gsus2)come to res cue me.

(Bm)Fall,

with you I fall so fast.

I can hard ly catch my breath, I hope it lasts.

(D)Ooh,

seems like I can fi n’ly (A5)rest my head on some thin’ real.

I like the way that feels.

(D)Ooh,

it’s as if you know me bet ter (A5)than I ev er knew my self.

I love how you can tell all the piec es, piec es,

(D)piec es of me.

All the piec es, piec es,

piec es of me.

I am mood y, I am mess y.

I get rest less and it’s sense less how you nev er seem to care.

When I’m an gry, you lis ten.

Make me hap py, it’s a mis sion and you (Gsus2)won’t stop ’til I’m there.

(Bm)Fall,

with you I fall so fast.

When I hit that bot tom crash, you’re all I have.

(D)Ooh,

seems like I can fi n’ly (A5)rest my head on some thin’ real.

I like the way that feels.

(D)Ooh,

it’s as if you know me bet ter (A5)than I ev er knew my self.

I love how you can tell all the piec es, piec es,
