if i fall

dusk arising


are you gonna catch me
if i fall?
i know you're waiting
in the shadows

i see it in your smile
read it in your eyes
it's my demise
but are you gonna catch me
if i fall?

              waiting for my heart break
              yes i know,       yes i know

you......always there.
me...........wasting time
a troubled care
with an open mind

              seems.....
                            i can do nothing wrong
              seems.....
                            i can do anything

my love is taken
but she cannot see
just how do i manage
this conspiracy

living two lifes
with just one soul
speaking no lies
no lies,.....  no lies

but are you gonna catch me
if i fall?

    the last line is a question we all want answered before we fall in love. Brilliant. I echo the thought of those before me that I would love to hear it sung.

    • dusk arising

      I think this is probably the best song i ever wrote because there are so many ways to interpret it. It would be great to hear it sung by an accomplished artist.

      • Christina8

        I think so too!

        Different time, deep emotions. Rebellious.

        Well sung

        • dusk arising

          Yes, long time ago Suresh. I'm enjoying my trip down memory lane with these old songs. Thank you.

          Super write, so emotive but remember this, if you do fall we are all here to catch you.

          • dusk arising

            Thank you Goldfinch, thats reassuring...... i'm hoping for a bright future with a little help from my friends and the specialist too.

            I got a tune in my head but would love to hear the original version... seems like a great song to me......... very catchy.. kinda.... N 🙂

            • dusk arising

              You hum it son, I'll follow.

              Thanks Neville, this trip down memory lane through my old song book is quite rewarding. I'm certainly enjoying reading the reactions. There's a few more to come.

              • Neville

                shall keep my eyes open....
