Текст (слова) песни: Barenaked Ladies - When I Fall
I look straight in the window, try not to look below Pretend I`m not up here, try counting sheep But the sheep seem to shower off this office tower Nine-point-eight straight down I can`t stop my knees
[Chorus] I wish I could fly From this building From this wall And if I should try Would you catch me if I fall?
My hands clench the squeegee, my secular rosary Hang on to your wallet, hang on to your rings Can`t look below me, or something might throw me Curse at the windstorms that October brings
I look in the boardroom; a modern pharaoh`s tomb I`d gladly swap places, if they care to dive They`re lined up at the window, peer down into limbo They`re frightened of jumping, in case they survive
I wish I could step from this scaffold Onto soft green pastures, shopping malls, or bed With my family and my pastor and my grandfather who`s Dead
Look straight in the mirror, watch it come clearer I look like a painter, behind all the grease But paintings creating, and I`m just erasing A crystal-clear canvas is my masterpiece
[Chorus]
