Waiting To Hit The Ground

Lying in the darkness, she said those words to me
The same words lovers whisper all the time
To repeat her words in answer
Should've come naturally to me
But was it love, or just a lover's line?

Finding her was magic, loving her is real
I opened up my heart and she sailed in
Together we're in heaven, apart she's in my dreams
But still I felt like all good things must end

And so I waited to hit the ground
Prepared to face another fall
And when no reasons for doubt were found
Suddenly there was no ground at all

In all my bouts with romance
The endings were the same
The promises of passion never called
But now that there's somebody
Who'll be with me til the end
Well, I realize it need not end at all

But still I waited to hit the ground
Prepared to face another fall
And when no reasons for doubt were found
Suddenly there was no ground at all

Lying in the darkness, I said those words to her
The same words lovers whisper all the time
