Falling Son - River Whyless

Opened the window in the day

Try and catch a breeze

Try and catch some light on a thirsty face

In a strangers attic

Back bent among their records

Ours is not yet here

It’s not yet born

We don’t have the money

But I have a little time

I have a little light to work with

He is hauling a heavy load

If he only only knew to let it go

In a venue in Ohio

I was asked about my plan

by one of my best friends

She said how how long will it take

How long till it breaks you apart?

'cause it surly will

He is hauling a heavy load

If he only only knew to let it go

It seems to come up more often

In the collapse of my 20's

Oh the falling son

Oh the falling sun

Leave a little light on a thirsty face

Oh the falling son

Oh the falling son

He is hauling a heavy load

If he only only knew to let it go

Oh the falling son

Oh the falling sun

He is hauling a heavy load

Oh the falling son

Oh the falling sun

If he only only knew to let it go

Oh the falling son

Oh the falling sun

I think I owe you an explanation

We’ve been in love now for years
