Never found a friend,
a friend like you,
a special friend,
who lifts me up,
and never drops me,
snatches me in a safety net,
as I'm tripping from the tightrope.

and yet,
we fall and we crumble into dust,
you and I because we must,
there's nowhere left to go,

and yet today,
I pick up the phone to call you,
when I know you're falling apart,
I carry a smile for you in my heart,
the smile is only for you,
knowing that you're never around,
how I wish you were.
Our love, it ran aground.

I could lift you back,
paint your smile back on,
If only you would take a chance,
and sing upon a failed romance,

one day you will answer me,
we'll spin upon the happy tree,
where birds live,
and truth forgives,

for now,
in life and love we're flying free,
as we depart the happy tree.
caught on a tear drop.
