Darryl Rahn - Parachute Lyrics

Parachute

August rolled in like a hurricane
And I quickly fell victim to its thunder and its rain
When you told me that your lovin' was true
There we lied until the sun could hide no more
And I woke up with a tenderness I'd never felt before
A kind of feeling that I now wish I never knew
So I'll tell myself you'll call
Though I know it isn't true
Your hearts too busy building walls
A guy like me just can't break through
But I know I'll be a better man when I survive this fall
I just need someone to be my parachute
Honestly, am I supposed to pretend
You and I can still be friends after everywhere we've been?
Let's be real, I can't deal with that
My old man tells me it isn't worth the fight
Well the wiser half of me must admit that he is right
But the other half is staring at your photograph
I still tell myself you'll call
Though it simply isn't true
Your heart's too busy building walls
A guy like me just can't break through
But I know I'll be a better man when I survive this fall
I just need someone to be my parachute
Oh, won't someone come and be my parachute?
So I will try and say it's better off this way
Though my heart and my head will never be on the same page
Cause I know something was missing back when I was kissing you
And I won't wait here for your call
The foolish way I used to do
Go ahead and build your walls
Just don't expect to see me soon
Cause I know I'll be a better man when I survive this fall
And your memory will be my parachute
Your memory will be my parachute
