Lyrics
Gravity
You say it's been way too long
Your bright eyes catch the morning sun
Your hands they brush my side
rewind time
I smile, gotta be so strong
and act, just act like I've moved on
While stills of you and me
play like my favorite movie
but I laugh a little too loud
and stand a little too close
I'm walking around
with my head in the clouds
I know I'll fall, I'll fall if I look down
I'm walkin around
I'm bumping into birds
I'd give anything to stay
but gravity brings me down
You say you still have the cats
the black one you caught stealing snacks
He sprawls out on my side
Sleepless nights
I sigh, gotta hold my tongue
pretend my heart-my heart's moved on
When all I breathe
is you and me
but I talk a little too much
and look a little too long
I'm walking around
with my head in the clouds
I know I'll fall, I'll fall if I look down
I'm walkin around
I'm bumping into birds
I 'd give anything to stay
but gravity
gravity
pulling on me
pulling at me
down down
pull me down
pulling on me
pulling me down
pulling me down
pulling on me
but I won't see
cuz I'm walking around
with my head in the clouds
I know I'll fall, I'll fall if I look down
But I'm walkin around
I'm bumping into birds and
I'd give anything to stay
Walking around
with my head in the clouds
I know I'll fall, I'll fall if I look down
But I'm walkin around
I'm bumping into birds and
I'd give anything to stay
but gravity
gravity
brings me down
