Jim Roll - The FallLyrics

Well he though he'd tell her something boyfriends never said Thought he'd steal away her heart while his words rattled round her head He saw her as a smooth black stones with eyes wet and deep And he told her I don't want anyone flirting with me She maintained her composure knowing full well inside she was a kid She said: "at least we're starting out honest boy That's something my parents never did". They walked home tense and excited Both next to someone they couldn't see And the night rumbled and it quaked And the traffic light turned from red to green Well she had told him once: "Don't trust me". But she wasn't the tramp that she wanted so badly to be And he was too naive to see her just trying to break free From another boy Trying to bring her father to his knees. They made love two weeks later to the humming of her bedroom fan And the candlelight jumped and he traced the palm of her hand And she jumped up from the bed And ripped the calendar from the wall The one her father had drawn with his hands before the fall. He though he'd tell her something Boyfriends never said
