Lyrics Fall For Me - John Michael Howell

She wouldn't know what's good for her if he held her in his hands
The character she claims to love is a stranger in her bed
The only thing she ever wanted was someone to call a home
Now she waits at home alone for a call to come

Ooh, she knows how bad it hurts, but still, she never seems to learn
Believes the best when nothing could be worse

She trusts his many lies, his alibis, the stories that he writes
But he comes home drunk and high out of his mind
She knows his many games, the love he fakes, but plays them anyway
She'll fall for anything
She just won't fall for me

I told her, "All them city boys are gonna do is break your heart"
But she would rather pay the price than say that I was right
Ain't it something how the things we need are seldom what we want?
We're so afraid to die when we're the ones holding the knife

She trusts his many lies, his alibis, the stories that he writes
But he comes home drunk and high out of his mind
She knows his many games, the love he fakes, but plays them anyway
She'll fall for anything
She just won't fall for me
She just won't fall for me

She knows the city fights, the life he hides, but looks the other way
She'll fall for anything
Just not anything she needs
