It's like jumping, it's like leaping
It's like walking on the ceiling
It's like floating, it's like flying through the air
It's like soaring, it's like gliding
It's a rocket ship you're riding
It's a feeling that can take you anywhere

So why they call it falling
Why they call it falling
Why they call it falling
I don't know

There was passion, there was laughter
The first morning after
I just couldn't get my feet to touch the ground
Every time we were together, we talked about forever
I was certain it was heaven we had found

So why they call it falling
Why they call it falling
Why they call it falling
I don't know

But you can't live your life
Walking in the clouds
Sooner or later you have to come down

It's like a knife through the heart
When it all comes apart
It's like someone takes a pin to your balloon
It's a hole, it's a cave
It's kind of like a grave
When he tells you he's found somebody new

And why they call it falling
Why they call it falling
Why they call it falling
Now I know
