John Adams (folk) - Rip Cord

When you leave I never wanna let you go
So forgive me, if I'm holding on too tight
Every time I've tried to use this line before
I've meant it but the words just don't come out right

Maybe I've been falling as I learn to fly

I've got one hand wrapped around the ripcord
The other is all yours
Don't be afraid to fall, I promise I won't let go
And if we need to land, I've got one hand on the ripcord

On the days I've lost my way, you've found me
Like we're made as two halves of one design.
I know that I am prone to overthinking
Oh but darling you never leave my mind

Maybe I've been falling as I learn to fly

I've got one hand wrapped around the ripcord
The other is all yours
Don't be afraid to fall, I promise I won't let go
And if we need to land, I've got one hand on the ripcord

If you hold on to meI'll be there all the way down.
There may be no guarantee
But trust me now I've got a plan
So if we need to land
Oh if we need to land
I've got one hand on the ripcord
If we need to land, I've got one hand on the ripcord
