When I first laid eyes on you
|
Well, the night just felt so odd
|
You looked at me and the stars lined up
|
So I thought I'd heard from God
|
And I gave him my best shot
|
|
Loving you was like throwing a lasso around a tornado
|
I tried to hold on to you
|
Took a ride on a tilt-a-whirl that sits on top of the world
|
Man, I thought I could show you
|
I've always been afraid of flying
|
But you can't blame a girl for trying
|
|
Felt like a pearl when I was holding your hand
|
So precious I forgot
|
You could have any girl but I only wanted one man
|
And you were everything I'm not
|
Still I gave it my best shot
|
|
Loving you was like throwing a lasso around a tornado
|
I tried to hold on to you
|
Took a turn on a high trapeze swinging over the deep
|
I thought I could show you
|
I've always been afraid of flying
|
But you can't blame a girl for trying
|
|
Like a vine bends a tree to the ground
|
I won't hold you down
|
I tried to climb just as high
|
But I found all the clouds touch the ground
|
In this small town
|
|
Took a ride on a high trapeze swinging over the deep
|
I thought I could show you
|
That I've always been afraid of flying
|
But you can't blame a girl for trying
|
No, you can't blame a girl
|
