The Idea of Falling in Love
Because
The idea of falling in love this time is
Too late
We lost what we had because we were too young to understand it
Perhaps
When we've grown a little bit, maybe we'll be able to try again
And start as if we're just meeting on that day
And maybe fall in love then
But
The idea of falling in love this time is
Too fast
At breakneck speed we're rushing into the future
Except
When we slow down a little bit, maybe we'll be able to look around
And see the way the world changed since we closed our eyes
And maybe fall in love then
Before
The idea of falling in love that time was
Too easy
It took too long for us to see eye to eye
Until
When our eyes finally met for a little bit, maybe we saw something
And we walked home, crushing fallen leaves beneath our feet
And maybe we fell in love then
