You emerged from the depths of the night
And you crossed my pale doorway
Your skin was trembling like a leaf
And you were whispering something, what does it matter?
I told you, nothing else, damn luck
And I held your tiny hand
They had wounded you deep in your soul
And you came to me seeking peace
Crazy girl, you played the trapeze artist without a net
Don't jump, but you see, it's the law of life
And in the end, to love is to fall
I dried you thoroughly again between my hands
And as I licked your tender wounds
I hugged you against me as tightly as I could
And I kissed your eyes without meaning to
I told you, nothing else, damn luck
And I held your tiny hand
They had wounded you deep in your soul
And you came to me seeking peace
Crazy girl, you played the trapeze artist without a net
Don't jump, but you see, it's the law of life
And in the end, to love is to fall
Crazy girl, you played the trapeze artist without a net
Don't jump, but you see, it's the law of life
And in the end, to love is to fall
And in the end, to love is to fall
