Eccentromanics If I Fall Lyrics

I know you're busy and you have to go
But could you stay a little longer just to say hello
Sometimes I feel like the world is dubbed
And I'm starring in a bad foreign movie
Once in a while, it's so hard to smile
I wish that I was on a swing and ten years old again
You whisper softly, hey, it can't get much worse, so c'mon
Things will change and it's gonna get better
It's gonna get better, now

And if I fall, will you be there to rescue me?
Will you save me before I fall too far?

I shut my eyes and then I try to ignore
The people screaming in my window right outside my door
I turn my ear so I don't hear. Instead,
I put my head under the covers and just lay in bed
I should do something if I really care
About a million starving kids in India somewhere
You whisper softly, hey, it can't get much worse, so c'mon
Things will change and it's gonna get better
It's gonna get better now

And if I fall, will you be there to rescue me?
Will you save me before I fall too far?
And if I fall, will you pick me up and make me smile?

When things get bad and I don't see you around
I feel alone, left and broken, in a lost and found
It's like the Devil tied me up and took me far away
Another dream, another scream, another day in L.A.
I would go crazy if you ever go - you might as well
Leave me stranded in the desert or hell
You whisper softly, hey, it can't get much worse, so c'mon
Things will change and it's gonna get better
It's just gotta get better now

And if I fall, I know you'll be there to rescue me
I know you'll save me before I fall too far
And if I fall, I know you'll be there to comfort me
Like a lighthouse shining through the storm
And if I fall, I know you'll pick me up and make me smile
