Nanci Griffith - Tumble and Fall Lyrics

Your late night conversation
Telephone call and an inspiration
For a heart to recall, had a tumble and fall

And my friends all say I'm lazy
Clumsy at love and I'm middle age crazy
I stumble along with a tumble and fall

Or maybe I'll come to my senses
Or come back to you when the fences are mended
Maybe love is a quiet whisper after all

Maybe love is a heart that heals you
Harmony when you can't recall the melody to the song
You're just singin' along, yes, you now sing along to the tumble and fall

I remember the sensuous cold
The chill of the month through an open window
And a beat of of your heart to a tumble and fall

You see I'm a little something you always needed
Your tried and true and I should believe in the strength of your arms
When I tumble and fall

So, maybe I'll come to my senses
Or come back to you when the fences are mended
Maybe love is a quiet whisper after all

Maybe love is a heart that heals you
Harmony when you can't recall the melody to the song
You just singin' along, yes, you now sing along to the tumble and fall
Oh, I'll sing along to the tumble and fall
