Free Fall

Music and Lyrics by Shawn Gilley ​

​Took my breath it was a kick in the chest
Fade into a world all alone
As she explained my life slipped away
Suddenly without a home

No one saw me the same
Damn the sympathy that came
Was enough to drive my out of my mind

Chorus - And I prayed for someone to save me
From the pain and hell that I’m facing
I didn’t ask for a happy ever after
But after all I just need someone to catch me from free fall

When you found me I swear I was drowning
While everyone watched from afar
It’s easy to say that you’ll always stay
Before it all goes wrong

You just flashed me a smile 
Took my hand for a while
And you’ve yet to let it go

Chorus

I’ll stand before all that we know 
And promise to never let go
I’ll love you with the heart that you put back from parts
That were shattered and scattered around

Chorus but - 
I wasn’t asking for a fairytale ending but in the end
Each day with you, you save me again

I hope these verses tell you that you’re worth more than anything that I could write
With you as my wife for the rest of my life all I need now is endless time
