Fallen
K-Def & Dacapo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Which leaves us with gold and wine colored pathways
In the same way I've
The same way I've fallen for you
You opened your arms like a school door to summer days
And opened my heart to rumors of a higher place
And where was I Baby I've fallen for you
Love is always on the go
It never stays in one place
Day by day it changes and it grows
But you'll always recognize its face
Day to day it changes and it grows
But you always recognize its face
The leaves have lost hold of the branches as always
Which leaves us with gold and wine colored pathways
In the same way I've
In the same way I've fallen for you
Like a star in the night
Baby I've fallen for you
