The Duhks - This Fall lyrics

This fall they all fall all around me They're pairing up, preparing for the cold to come They cling and dangle at each other's side Not keen on letting air flow by This fall they all fall all around me Some were meant to fall deeply in love this year I was meant to fall into the depths of this basement Meant to fall ever so deep into an empty bed Alone, all alone in my head chorus Some were meant to fall head over heals this year I was destined to fall into the workshop to labour Guess I wouldn't have time even if I had the chap Yet my heart longs to long for someone Those joyous folks, those happy people Who can't help but stare straight into each other's eyes They're taken, simply smitten I fear they've lost their minds! Who can blame them when I know I'd spare mine? This fall they all fall all around me… chorus I refuse to be cold but would rather be alone Than to have a body that warms my feet But keeps my heart frozen I'll pile on the blankets at the foot of my bed And trust my zealous heart will one day conquer its desire chorus
