When I Fall


I remember driving down on three fifty nine
Saw a homeless veteran riding his bike
The red white and blue waving off his handle bars
And all us who sent him off to war driving by in our cars

And I recall a hot day in the city of Cairo
Saw an old woman and her babies on the side of the road
A good man came by put bottled water in her lap
She smiled and I cried saying why didn't i do that

And i, i don't know I don't know if i give anything at all
With these millions of moments that i'll take before I fall
But I, I do know I do know that Id give anything at all
For just one meaningful moment to catch me, catch me when I fall

I'd known her for many years of my life
She was a lady poets write about, she was my wife.
I never found my pen, never gave her the time or the dance
Now just like everything else i'm asking for one last chance

And i, i don't know I don't know if I give anything at all
With these millions of moments that i'll take before I fall
But i, i do know i do know that i'd give anything at all
For just one meaningful moment to catch me, catch me when i fall

And there's still life in me and a wife with me so i'll strive to be
A man who takes a chance, learns to dance, and grabs the moment with these hands, with these hands

And i, i do know i do know that i'd give anything at all
For just one meaningful moment to catch me catch me when i

I don't know I don't know if i give anything at all
With these millions of moments that i'll take before i fall
But i, i do know i do know that i'd give anything at all
For just one meaningful moment to catch me, catch me when i fall
Catch me when i fall
