Watched Me Fall

Watched Me Fall

You watched me fall

Fall from grace

An outstretched hand

Took me by surprise

There you were

With concern in your eyes

You watched me fall

Fall from grace

You gave me strength

In a time of weakness

You gave me love

In a time of bleakness

You watched me fall

Fall from grace

An unexpected champion

Standing by my side

Shielded me from them

While I fell apart inside

You watched me fall

I fell from grace

They turned their backs on me

And you took their place

Possessed the pain

You stole it from me

Accepted the burden as yours

To let me be free

And as you watched

Watched me fall

You saved me

You took it all

You watched me fall

Fall from grace

You protected me

From ongoing disgrace

And if you fall love

I’ll be by your side

To pick you up

To be your guide
