Before the Fall Lyrics

Carrie Newcomer

V: Where did the time go I swear
It was last week or at most last year
The face I see in the mirror
Really can't be me
V: This town can talk, and just because
But stupid is as stupid does
We have but one or two great loves
So why would I regret
Ch: I was the girl you almost married
When hopes were high and eyes were starry
You lay me down in the tallest grass
When the sun was goin down
In the shadow of the thunder storm
My hair tangled in your sunburned arms
You crazy for my wildest charms
The summer before the fall
V: So willingly lead astray
The world spun slower than today
Most women know
But they never say
Ch: I was the girl you almost married
When hopes were high and eyes were starry
You lay me down in the tallest grass
When the sun was going down
In the shadow of the thunder storm
My hair tangled in your sunburned arms
You crazy for my wildest charms
The summer before the fall
Br: On steamy nights in mid July
Through dusty windows and stormy skies
I lean on the counter and I close my eyes
V: Who knows how far a good deed flies
Or the speed of light to reach our eyes
Or when we shouldn't question why
Ch:
