If I had to choose one
Person to keep from
Falling off the earth to
Stay here with me
I'd hold on to you my
Foot tied to a tree you'd
Bid farewell to falling friends I'd
Fasten you to me
Fasten you to me
Held down by the roots of a tree
The air would settle down
Our feet would meet the ground
You'd find that I was not so frightened
We would get along
You would sing me songs
And I would think of gentle harmonies
Carried by the breeze
We'd get mad and take it out on one another
Just 'cause there'd be no one else around
I would want to fight you even though you're much bigger
You would laugh until I settled down
I would say you're lucky I calmed down
You'd wait till my senses came around
If I had to choose one
Person to keep from
Falling off the earth to
Stay here with me
I'd hold on to you my
Foot tied to a tree you'd
Bid farewell to falling friends I'd
Fasten you to me
Fasten you to me
Fasten you to me
I'd fasten you to me
Fasten you to me
Held down by the roots of a tree
