Bonnie Raitt - Feeling of Falling lyrics

rate me

Sometimes I miss that feeling of falling

Falling on over the ledge

You know I miss that feeling of falling

Falling on over the ledge

And when my mind it gets to worryin'

And I just can't get no rest

Oh Baby, that's when I call you up instead

It's after midnight baby, I'm sittin' here all alone

I tried to call your number baby,

but you weren't at home

I been a good girl baby, through with all that mess

But the way I'm feelin' now, darlin'

Well it scares me half to death

Well I miss that feelin', of fallin'

on over the ledge

That summer night in Texas, baby

Too hot and wet to sleep

I heard you pull up in the distance

You're comin' to get me relief

We went screamin' down the highway, baby

So much faster than we should

You pulled me over in the moonlight

Man, I still can feel that hood

Well I miss that feeling of fallin',

on over the ledge

When that rain starts baby, I want to take a real

Good look at that ledge

It ain't something you get over

You might think you made it through

You can turn your head and walk away

But it never takes it's eyes off you

It'll push your foot right through the floorboard

Make you cut them streamers down his back

You waste what's precious and you can't afford

It runs your life right off the track

Keeps you boilin' in that poison

Only the truly twisted know so well

You don't need drugs to show you heaven, baby

'cause there's plenty clean in hell

That miss that feelin' of fallin'

of fallin' on over the ledge

When the blues start callin' I want to crawl way up close to the ledge
