Let Me Fly or Let Me Fall

Lyrics
I used to wind you up You used to calm me down You let me play the martyr So that I could act the clown The difference between the church and stage Is whether we're enlightened or amazed The magician or the priest Take a little bit from each And hope some of the magic always stays I used to make you laugh And you used to make me think You pulled me from the edge Oh when I was on the brink Now you better let me fly or let me fall It can sometimes fire the engines when they stall To float without the drive Is just being half alive And between the two of us there must be more You used to make me smile I used to turn you on The flame may flicker sometimes Ah, but love has never gone And if anything, right now I need you more Is that a heartbeat or a tapping at your door? A sense that something's wrong A weakening of something strong Like a lion with a splinter in his paw
