When I had you - when your love would pull me through
When nights were long, when your love would make me strong
When time, regretful to say, in the gentlest way over you
Maybe I should follow your lead
And turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on - staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me
To me, roll over to me

When I had you, when your arms would hold me true
When nights were long, when your love would make me strong
When time, regretful to say, just go you own way and you do
Maybe I should swallow this pride
And turn as is it never meant a thing to me

When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on - staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me
To me, roll over to me

If we can take the chances - then there's nothing that we can't do
If we can take the chances - then there's nothing, nothing
That we can't do
When you're flying with your head down, feeling blown away
When you're battered and bound by all the things you say
When you're sleeping with the lights on - staring all the way
When you're heading for a fall then roll over to me
To me, roll over to me
