Catch My Fall

Sweet September, sweet September rain
Comes down on me tonight to wash away the pain
Why’d you leave, now I’m walking these same streets
With a pocket full of memories I just can’t leave at my feet
With the break of May she turned and walked my way
An angel with a broken heart, a little lost runaway
She cut like diamonds through the walls I had built
Then I let her in my heart and those walls I rebuilt
Please don’t cry tonight
Please don’t leave tonight
Who’s gonna be there
To Catch my fall
Much to young and always on the run
The rhythm in her feet always pulled her towards the sun
She couldn’t stop, just couldn’t settle down
Wake up in the middle of the night standing on the edge of town
Please don’t cry tonight
Please don’t leave tonight
Who’s gonna be there
To Catch my fall
And though I thought I knew what love could be
She tried to stay but had much more road to see
And though she cried on the night she left
I can still hear her last words ringing in my head
Please don’t cry tonight
Please don’t leave tonight
Who’s gonna be there
To Catch my fall
Please don’t cry tonight
Please don’t leave tonight
Who’s gonna be there
To Catch my fall
