Lyrics
Fall On Pavement
Words and Music by Linda Cullum
V1
I've been riding on a quiet road
A very special place I call my own
Wind in my hair
I haven't a care
Wondering what the future holds
V2
One day you came up beside me
you are from that other busy street
I must say it's held my curiosity
And I wondered if we'd ever meet
Pre Chorus
Then you winked at me
Passed me really fast
My heart was racing yours
And I thought that I would crash
Well
Chorus
I don't think I should go down this road
I'm not sure of what I'm chasin'
There's a chance I'll run a stop sign I don't see
And I don't want to fall on pavement
V3
I have always had some kind of plan
That is just part of who I am
No surprises for me
I'm no fruit on a tree
Waiting to be picked selectively
Pre Chorus
Then you winked at me
Passed me really fast
My heart was racing yours
And I thought that I would crash
Well
Chorus
I don't think I should go down this road
I'm not sure of what I'm chasin'
There's a chance I'll run a stop sign I don't see
And I don't want to fall on pavement
Woo
I don't want to fall on pavement
Caution!
There's a chance I'll run a stop sign I don't see
And I don't want to fall on pavement
Oh no not me
No I don't want to fall on pavement
Oh can't you see
Oh I don't want to fall on pavement
