Fall For You
Kristie Lyrics


There you go again actin' like my heart ain't stolen
Like you don't got me writing songs for you at night
Alone in my bedroom
Dreaming 'bout the type of love

That only leaves you hopeless (hopeless)
Can we change the narrative
Is there something more to this
'Cause I want what you have to offer
But I know that you like to call it quits when it gets hard
And we know that it's too good
To waste what we've got on other fools

They don't know what's good for you
They don't know you like I do
Good for you
You know I'm good for you
Yeah baby I'm trying to tell you that
I need you to show up and prove
That I'm good for you
They're no good for you
Love you like I

Do you believe in the kind of love
That came here from a past life
'Cause I just don't believe that we were meant to be completely strangers
Tell me it'll last
Nothing like your past relationships
You're always running from the problems boy
But that's a part of love
Part of love

And I want what you have to offer
But I know that you like
To call it quits when it gets hard
And we know that it's too good (too damn good)
To waste what we've got on other fools
They don't know what's good for you
They don't love you like I do

Good for you
You know I'm good for you
Yeah baby I'm trying to tell you that
I need you to show up and prove
That I'm good for you
They're no good for you
Love you like I do

Good
For
Good for you
I'm good for you
Good
For
Yeah you know that I'm good for you

There’s a moment in time
And it’s stuck in my mind
Way back, when we were just kids

'Cause your eyes told the tale
Of an act of betrayal
I knew that somebody did

Oh, waves of time
Seem to wash away
The scenes of our crimes
For you this never ends

Can you stay strong?
Can you go on?
Kristy, are you doing okay?
A rose that won’t bloom
Winter’s kept you
Don’t waste your whole life trying
To get back what was taken away

Though the marks on your dress
Had been neatly repressed
I knew that something was wrong
And I should have spoke out
And I’m so sorry now
I didn’t know
'Cause we were so young

Oh, clouds of time
Seem to rain on
Innocence left behind
And it never goes away

Can you stay strong?
Can you go on?
Kristy, are you doing okay?
A rose that won’t bloom
Winter’s kept you
Don’t waste your whole life trying
To get back what was taken away

Oh, clouds of time
Seem to rain on
Innocence left behind
And it never goes away (It never goes away)
It never goes away

Can you stay strong?
Can you go on?
Kristy, are you doing okay?
A rose that won’t bloom
Winter’s kept you
Don’t waste your whole life trying
To get back what was taken away

"Don't waste your whole life trying to get back what was taken away"
That was all I needed to hear. Thank you.

@blamstam

Isabella Evans that line is like an icicle into my heart. It’s true, it’s good advice, but it’s so difficult to let go of the innocence stolen that I get hung up on in life.

@bup6340

Im still mad that I didn't see my brother when he played Skyrim, accidentally tossed up a shield and thus blocked an arrow. He also did not record it and I want to see that!

@thegreatest4860

It’s an icicle for most. Wounds don’t heal and it’s nature to see what you’ve lost every time you close your eyes. I just wish I would of told her I loved her one last time

@chrisp7110

This was one of the key teachings of Buddhism. I used to study at a Buddhist school and this was a philosophy that the Buddha teaches. Let go and move on because time cannot be turned backwards and you have so little time to be on this planet, so just live it to the fullest. No matter how dark your life was, there is still light ahead, you just need to let go completely so that you can embrace light.

@lightanchors6622

@@chrisp7110 Indeed! Back then those words rang true. Since then, I have gone through a Major change, a shift in perspective. I dove deep within, healing everything I could reach. Even being able to forgive the one that stole my innocence and childhood. 😊 It no longer consumes me. I am Free.
There is no 'getting it back', but I was able to do something even Better. Forgive and Heal. 💙💚💜

What makes this song so beautiful (and rather heartbreaking at the same time) is that the girl's abuse stuck with Dexter for this long and clearly affected him. We meet so many people in life, and those we meet in school stick with us the longest because we essentially know them for the better part of around 15 years on average. We see them 5 days of the week during the school year. Friends or not... these people will always have a spot in your memories. I cannot think of a single memory from my time in school that would stick to me like the meaning behind this song. And that shows just how a small scale event (one thay affected only one girl) had harnessed itself to Dexter's memories for a lifetime, to where he made a song about it.

@sicherndeseele

I think it happens to more folks than you'd think. Some are just super sensitive to what's happening around them. It's often also a side effect of being a child with a narcissistic parent or abusive parents.

I think a lot of artists (music or otherwise) draw from that well.

I have quite a few memories from 30 & 40 years ago. Which friends had stuff going on at home or some at school. People I barely knew. But, I could sense certain things about people.

@timtravels116

I’m grateful my kids are way more sensitive to the plight of others than I was in high school/college. I look back and think about people I was classmates with but never really knew, and I now see some of them were suffering.

@DixonsCider

I still remember the girl from.my high school who had to lose out on everything after being driven near mad by her family to do what was called the 'suicide 5' or 5 very hard subjects that had public state exams. To get the best results to go to uni etc. Turns out this poor thing who seemed so together, ran school council, was super sporty and won trophies and shit in many sports as well as crushing it in rather hard subjects...
Nearly died of malnutrition thanks to bulimia.

Fucking parents.

I still think about her suffering and misery to this day.
