Lookin' For A Soft Place To Fall

Written by Sid Griffin

Just like a little drop of water,

wets the branch to give it new leaves

I’d would lend you a hand or give you my ear

Its better that we speak than you just grieve

We have the kind of love which seems to confront us

To astound us and bring us to our knees

But I’m the kind of friend, who’ll be there in the end

Lookin’ for a soft place to fall

Just like my old landline phone, dear,

the one you never ring at all

I’ll quietly await for you to sound my bell

Our silence broken by your timely call

You are the only one who seems to consume me

To confuse me and make me feel so small

seems I’m the kind of friend who’ll cry into the wind

Lookin’ for a soft place to fall

Just like a shadow in the late night,

so hard to see the next step to take

To choose to walk with me & feel you’re never free

But baby, I would never let you crawl

You’re the only one who seems to soothe me

so stay with me & be there when I call

If not you’ll see me searchin’, stumblin’ on the ground

Lookin’ for a soft place to fall
