after the fall

i've been listening
to the music
that we danced to
way back then
i've been searchin'
for some answers
what went wrong?
where you been?

(chorus)
i need to find some consolation
i need to understand it all
all i have for my recollection
is the music
before the fall

i've been tryin'
to find a memory
but i haven't
found it yet
i was happy
i was crazy
until the season
of regret

(chorus)
i need to find some consolation
i need to understand it all
all i have for my recollection
is the music
before the fall

(Bridge)
blue nights
lead into blue days
winter lasted
on and on
all i have now
is a cryin' empty feeling
and the music
before the fall

(repeat chorus)
