The Fall

(album: Xanadu - 1980)

I see the early glow
I hear you say hello
I watch the shadows fall
I don't see you at all

It's a lie (I don't believe it's so)
It's a lie

I see the autumn rain
Falling on my window pane
I hear you say goodbye
I see a tear in your eye

It's a lie (I don't believe it's so)
It's a lie

Our love couldn't go wrong
How could I know? I was only dreaming
And now, now that you're gone
I will go on, really believing
I take the fall

I see you slip away
Into another day
There's no one else around
I watch the sun go down

It's a lie (I don't believe it's so)
It's a lie

Our love couldn't go wrong
How could I know? I was only dreaming
And now, now that you're gone
I will go on, really believing
I take the fall

I take the fall

I see you in a dream
You turn and start to go
I call to you once more
Guess that I'm taking the fall

It's a lie (I don't believe it's so)
It's a lie

Our love couldn't go wrong
How could I know? I was only dreaming
And now, now that you're gone
I will go on really, believing
Our love couldn't go wrong
How could I know? I was only dreaming
And now, now that you're gone
I will go on, really believing

I take the fall
