I have fallen through the years like a feather in the wind that never did touch down never felt the ground never knew the love I feel with you
Aboard a ship on selfish waves I have sailed through this life never standing on my knees just doing as I please never really cared until our eyes did meet
And I don't want this to slip away 'cause I love you so much more each day and the foolish things I said I wish I could just erase I could just erase
I'm asking that you understand that I am not a simple man and that I'm trying hard to struggle through the sand Yeah I'm reaching for your hand to fly with you again
'Cause I have fallen in your tears like a fool who has drowned in a pool of empty thought in a place that I forgot and I'm reaching for your hand Please pull me back again
To that time and place that loving smile on your face so many tender moments shared That time cannot erase No, time cannot erase
And I have fallen through the years like a feather in the wind that never did touch down never felt the ground until I knew the love I feel with you
Great song Edwin and excellant lyrics. Your song tells a story of love that is unrivaled by too many other love stories because your sincerity can be felt.
Christine below says she wishes she could hear this in song and I understand this because although the words are beautiful, the words set to music adds a completely new dimension and it's truly amazing when you can hear it sung with emotion. I'm fortunate because you sang this incredible song for me - a song that could so easily be a commercial hit. Love provides such great inspiration. You have inspired so much of my poetry and more...
I live the feelings that you express here, Edwin. Thank you. Love and best wishes to you,
Regis

Although I know not much about song writing, I do know about love and its intricacies and this song, even without the music, put my thoughts into a whirl as I heard the cry of the lover pleading for a lifeline . . . I don't understand this like, however, "never standing on my knees." Maybe I'm just not thinking straight, it is in the sawing of the day after all and I droop with the day . . .
These few words are so elegant...and add class to this beautiful song.

I really like the imagery with the sand, a personal favorite.
