Falling

from Hard Frost by Annie Keating

/

lyrics

If I were a hound, I’d be up howling for you
Late into the evening by the light of the moon
If I were a lion you’d hear me roar
A wild kinda sound across the jungle floor

If I were an ocean I’d swell proud and true
And send all the pretty waves breaking for you
If I were the thunder I’d rumble all night
If lightening were me, it’d light up your sky

CHORUS
But I’m just a girl that’s all
Who’s fallen
I feel like a kid again
who’s fallen

If i were the darkness I’d rest next to you
And offer you comfort the whole night through
If I were a boxer I wouldn’t stay down
You’d see my swinging through the very last round

The color for me would be ruby red
If I were a song I would rush to your head
If I were a pony I’d buck and then roll
Jump the white fences and keep on going

CHORUS

If I were a tuxedo I’d dress you up nice
Make you feel like a king make you feel just right
If I were the breeze I’d come cool and slow
And bring you relief from the sweltering glow
If I were sea salt I’d cling to your skin
If I were a door, I’d be thrown wide open
Whatever pain you can’t take i’d surely shake it
Like a doctor who knows everything about heartache

CHORUS

If I were your stead I’d take you racing
A thousand acres the views breathtaking
If the storm were in me it’d be gathering speed
And if I were the tide I’d be high as can be
If I were a sound I’d be the kick drum
Beating in time to your heart on the run
Wish I could be a dream I would rush to your slumber
If you were a book I’d write the next chapter

CHORUS

Lucinda Williams. John Prine. Bob Dylan. Allison Krauss. Willie Nelson, Bonnie Raitt. Emmylou Harris - A short list of the musicians Keating has been compared to.
