Just Where to Fall

Just Where to Fall

25 years since last we met
I barely remember your face
You’d walked away at such a quick pace
Your ponytail waving goodbye

(Chorus)
But holding you now
My arms remember somehow
Your shoulders, the small of your back
My hands know just where to fall
It’s like you never left at all
It’s like you’re coming back

I’m happily married with a beautiful child
Our lives are filled with love and grace
I’ve no regrets, but I’ve never erased
The memories of our past

(Chorus)

Sometimes reunions are for the broken ones
Whose best days are way back
Sometimes they are for magicians
Trying to turn the present in to the past
But seeing you again brings me back to my old pain
And reminds me how much better my life has been

And holding you now
My arms remember somehow
Your shoulders, the small of your back
My hands know just where to fall
It’s like you never left at all
It’s like you’re coming back

25 years since last we met
I can barely remember your face
