Falling Slowly
Kris Allen Lyrics
I don't know you but I want you all the more for that
Words fall through me and always fool me and I can't react
And games that never amount to more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now
Moods that take me and erase me and I'm painted black
You have suffered enough and warred with yourself
It's time that you won, oh
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had the choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along

As a professional pianist, I used this song at the request of a bride for her entrance song. It was a beautiful choice for a non-traditional bridal entrance. That was several years ago. Now, coming up soon, I will be playing it again at another wedding. It will be part of a brief interlude section during the ceremony. I always like it when a bride chooses this song.

This song has brought me strength today. I've won cancer and now am fighting the side-effects from all the treatments. I will beat this too. It is time for me to win. And sing my life melody. Beautiful song. Thank you for posting.
