Cannonball

Love I, always kept my, distance
And then, you came around
A fortress, I built on an island
Breaking down into the water below
My eyes closed
I'm losing hold
Catch me dear I'm falling
My walls are coming down
Piece by piece take me now
From the moment that our lips met
My defense is all but gone
We collide and explode like a cannonball
My empire, in ashes around me
And somehow I feel like it's all right in place
Like drifting, to sleep I went slowly
Then all at once you took me away
My eyes closed
I'm losing hold
Catch me dear I'm falling
My walls are coming down
Piece by piece take me now
From the moment that our lips met
My defense is all but gone
We collide and explode like a cannonball
Cannonball
You held me closer stone by stone
Now I'm letting go
Catch me dear I'm falling
Catch me dear I'm falling
My walls are coming down
Piece by piece take me now
From the moment that our lips met
My defense is all but gone
We collide and explode like a cannonball
A cannonball
