Glen Hansard Falling Slowly Lyrics

Falling Slowly Lyrics

I don't know you but I want you

All the more for that

Words fall through me and always fool me

And I can't react



And games that never amount

To more than they're meant

Will play themselves out



Take this sinking boat and point it home

We've still got time

Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice

You've made it known



Falling slowly, eyes that know me

And I can't go back

The moods that take me and erase me

And I'm painted black



Well, you have suffered enough

And warred with yourself

It's time that you won



Take this sinking boat and point it home

We've still got time

Raise your hopeful voice, you have a choice

You've made it known



Falling slowly sing your melody

I'll sing along



I paid the cost too late

Now you're gone
