There's still a little bit of your taste in my mouth
There's still a little bit of you laced with my doubt
It's still a little hard to say what's going on

There's still a little bit of your ghost, your witness
There's still a little bit of your face I haven't kissed
You step a little closer each day
That I can't say what's going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
Life taught me to die
So it's not hard to fall
When you've feel like a cannonball

There's still a little bit of your song in my ear
There's still a little bit of your words I long to hear
You step a little closer to me
So close, I can't see what's going on

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
So come on courage, teach me to be shy
'Cause its not hard to fall
When you know that you just dont know

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to lie
So come on courage, teach me to be shy
'Cause its not hard to fall
When you've feel like a cannonball

Stones taught me to fly
Love taught me to cry
So come on courage, teach me to be shy
'Cause its not hard to fall
And I don't wanna scare him

Its not hard to fall
And I don't want to lose
Its not hard to fall
When you've feel like a cannonball.
