kites that fly the highest have the farthest to fall
the ripest fruit is quick to rot the
smartest folks we call them
insane, i'm cresting the hill
i can look back still
its so beautiful,
but never straight i'm terrified of what my eyes
might find when things change
when times are in their prime
you got it all and everything to lose
the men who love the hardest
are the folks who fall the hardest when things change
they sit around in darkened rooms
babbling their excuses and saying
"never fall in love"
nothing stays the same it seems in dreams
i'm building time machines for her
"never fall in love"
getting close and having good times
makes for harder crying when things change
i'm on the mountaintop
but time wont stop for me or her
and i cant look straight i'm terrified
of what my eyes will find when things change
"never fall in love"
