I have been too [E]cl[A]ose
[E]to[A] that flame of desire
[E]I [A]have spoken too soon
[G#7]the [A7]wor[E]ds full of fire full of fire
[E]I [A]have fallen too fast
[E]fr[A]om[A7] the top of Love's tree
[E]br[A]uised by every branch
[G#7]neve[A7]r l[E]anding on my feet on my feet
Transition
[E] [G#7] [A7] [F#7]
[A7]Like a fool I'm willing
[A7]to [F#7]take that fall again
[E]Do[A]n'[G#7]t le[A7]t me fall too fast
[E]I [G#7]want[A7] to[F#7] fall[E] slowly - I want my fall to last
[E]I wa[A]nt my fall to last
I want my fall to last
I have drawn too much
from that fountain of tears
and i drowned many times
i was warned but didn't hear didnt hear
I have spoke too much
from a pipe made of bones
I will hide for awhile
then will tumble like a stone
like a stone
like a fool im willing
to take that fall again
dont let me fall too fast
i want to fall slowly
i want my fall to last
i want my fall to last
i want my fall to last
Now im flying too high
with these wings made of wax
and im bound for the plane
but i wont turn back wont turn back
dont let me fall too fast
i want to fall slowly
i want to fall slowly
i want to fall slowly
