Yet feel the air beneath my feet

Why did I fall in love with you

3. How can you make me fall apart
Then break my fall with loving lies
It's so easy to break a heart
It's so easy to close your eyes

Yet like a child I yearn for you
How can anyone feel so wild
How can anyone feel so blue
R: This is the closest...
A D
D Bm.... and being close to you (2x)
