Songwriter: Marvin Hamlisch Carole Bayer Sager

I'm afraid to fly
And I don't know why
I'm jealous of the people who
Are not afraid to die

It's just that I recall
Back when I was small
Someone promised

That they'd catch me
And then they let me fall

And now I'm fallin'
Fallin' fast again
Why do I always take a fall
When I fall in love?

You think by now I've learned
Play with fire you get burned
But fire can be also warm
And that's why I return

Turn and walk away
That's what I should do
My head says go and find the door
My heart says I'll find you

And now I'm fallin', fallin' fast again
Why do I always take a fall when I fall in love?

It always turns out the same

Loving someone, losing myself

Only got me to blame

Help me I'm fallin fallin

Catch me if you can
Maybe this time I'll have it all
Maybe I'll take it after all

Maybe this time I won't fall

When I fall in love

Oooh...
