THE FALL

I don't know anybody who was waiting for it
but the fall is here again
Leaves are falling to the ground
Everybody leaves them there
except for this little kid
who picks them up and I can see her wondering
Her daddy sees me smilin' and he picks her up
With a look in his eyes that we've all had before

We see bad intentions everywhere
Distrust is the only thing we share
So no one will see our good intent
Mistrust misinterprets what we really meant

Some folks long for it and there are some who dread it
But the night has fallen again
The window shades are all closed
in this shady street where two tense voices
are closing in on me
I cannot understand what they are cryin' out
I start to run and cry for help, but when I look back
I realize our cries are the same

We see bad intentions everywhere
Distrust is the only thing we share
So no one will see our good intent
Mistrust misinterprets what we really meant

I wonder how did this suspicion come about
Did we once give one another the benefit of the doubt
And can we get those days back again
What does it take to restore man's faith in man

We see bad intentions everywhere
Distrust is the only thing we share
So no one will see our good intent
Mistrust misinterprets what we really meant
