(Music and Lyrics by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova)
I don't know you, but I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me, and always fool me
And I can't react
Games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out
Take this sinking boat
And point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice
You had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me, and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won
Take this sinking boat
And point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice
You had a choice
You've made it now
Falling slowly
Sing your melody
I'll sing it loudFalling Slowly Once musical lyrics
