The Fall by Teenage Fanclub Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I fell into another world
And I tried to discover
What I was
I fell into my lover’s arms
And I tried to recover What I'd lost
[Chorus]
On this autumn day
I feel the feelings I'd lost
Crossing lines I never thought I'd cross
To uncover
A new way
[Verse 2]
I turn my back on the city sights
And I climb into the mountains
To see the stars
My eyes fix time on those ancient lights
Like gravity makes fountains
What they are
[Chorus]
On this autumn day
I feel the feelings I'd lost
Spend my time and never count the cost
Crossing lines I never thought I'd cross
To uncover
A new way
[Instrumental]
[Reprise]
A new way
[Outro]
The leaves on the trees
Shield my eyes from the sun
But the leaves that I see
They won't be there for long
When I light a fire Underneath what I was
I won't feel sad
Only warmed by the loss
The leaves on the trees
Shield my eyes from the sun
But the leaves that I see
They won't be there for long
When I light a fire Underneath what I was
I won't feel sad
Only warmed by the loss
The leaves on the trees
Shield my eyes from the sun
But the leaves that I see
They won't be there for long
When I light a fire Underneath what I was
I won't feel sad
Only warmed by the loss
I fell into another world
And I tried to discover
What I was
I fell into my lover’s arms
And I tried to recover What I'd lost
[Chorus]
On this autumn day
I feel the feelings I'd lost
Crossing lines I never thought I'd cross
To uncover
A new way
[Verse 2]
I turn my back on the city sights
And I climb into the mountains
To see the stars
My eyes fix time on those ancient lights
Like gravity makes fountains
What they are
[Chorus]
On this autumn day
I feel the feelings I'd lost
Spend my time and never count the cost
Crossing lines I never thought I'd cross
To uncover
A new way
[Instrumental]
[Reprise]
A new way
[Outro]
The leaves on the trees
Shield my eyes from the sun
But the leaves that I see
They won't be there for long
When I light a fire Underneath what I was
I won't feel sad
Only warmed by the loss
The leaves on the trees
Shield my eyes from the sun
But the leaves that I see
They won't be there for long
When I light a fire Underneath what I was
I won't feel sad
Only warmed by the loss
The leaves on the trees
Shield my eyes from the sun
But the leaves that I see
They won't be there for long
When I light a fire Underneath what I was
I won't feel sad
Only warmed by the loss
