If The Sky Was Falling
[Verse 1]
If the world was ending, stars fallin'
Baby, whose hand would you be holdin'?
As the ground is crackin', people screamin'
Lookin' to the news to hear an omen
Would you be my final goodbye
As the flames close in from all sides?
[Chorus]
If the sky was fallin' down
Would I be the one you're callin'
As the comets hit the ground? Oh
'Cause lately we ain't been talkin'
Would you leave the baggage in the past
Or hold on 'til the ground turns into ash?
If the sky was fallin' down, oh
Would I ever hear you say, "I need you now"?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
Mm, I hear the thunder passin' ovеr
Lightning as the end is gettin' closеr
I feel the fire growin' warmer
But the hole inside my heart is gettin' colder
Can we just try to let go and forgive?
If the world dies, why let the past live?
[Chorus]
If the sky was fallin' down
Would I be the one you're callin'
As the comets hit the ground? Oh
'Cause lately we ain't been talkin'
Would you leave the baggage in the past
Or hold on 'til the ground turns into ash?
If the sky was fallin' down, oh
Would I ever hear you say, "I need you now"?
[Bridge]
Or would you leave me guessin'
As we take our final breaths in? Oh (Oh-oh-oh)
As the stars come crashin'
Would you waste your final seconds?
[Chorus]
If the sky was fallin' down
Would I be the one you're callin'
As the comets hit the ground?
'Cause lately we ain't been talkin'
Would you leave the baggage in the past
Or hold on 'til the ground turns into ash?
If the sky was fallin' down
Would I ever hear you say, "I need you now"?
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh
