Tumble And Fall - Nanci Griffith

You’re a late night conversation

A telephone call and an inspiration

For a heart to recall.

.. how to tumble and fall

My friends all say I’m lazy

I’m clumsy at love and I’m middle aged-crazy

I stumble along.

.. with a tumble and fall

Maybe I’ll come back to my senses

And come back to you where the fences are mended

Maybe love is a quite whisper after all

Maybe love is a heart that gives you harmony

When you can’t recall the melody to the song

You’re just singin' along

Oh, I’ll sing along.

.. to your tumble and fall

I remember San Francisco

The chill of the moon through an open window

And the beat of your heart.

.. to a tumble and fall

You say, I’m a little somethin' you’ve always needed

You’re tried and true and I should believe in

The strength of your arms.

.. when I tumble and fall

Maybe I’ll come back to my senses

And come back to you where the fences are mended

Maybe love is a quite whisper after all

Maybe love is a heart that gives you harmony

When you can’t recall the melody to the song

You’re just singin' along

Oh, I’ll sing along.

.. to your tumble and fall

Yes, I’ll sing along.

.. with the tumble and fall

Oh, I’ll sing along.

.. to the tumble and fall
