PRETTY FALL

i like you best when you like me best - and i like you most of all
guilty only of innocence as i innocently fall
i like you most when you like me most - i still like you best of all
and there's no save-face pride to come - to come before my fall

and that is all i am on - a pretty fall

i like you most when you like me most - i still like you most of all
and now i know what it is to want, i know i don't want any more
and so i find myself helpless in freefall
you could be my parachute - i know i want to be yours

and that is all i am on - a pretty fall

she's a trapeze ... i can't reach
