Todd Rundgren - Something to Fall Back On текст песни

If I gave you just a bit more time

Do you think that you would make up your mind?

You cant expect that a flower will grow

Until you get around to giving it more

Like its only

Something to fall back on

Something to fall back on

Something to fall back on

Like a crumpled dollar hidden in your hat

For the subway home when theres no welcome mat

Youd be left with nothing if it werent for that

When you need to find it its right behind you

Remember when you were the talk of the town

And you didnt care if I was around

But still you kept me in the back of your head

Just like the teddy bear that you took to bed

I was only something to fall back on

And to wake up lonely is your deepest dread

So you stay connected by a tiny thread

Though youd rather try for something else instead

When you need to find me Im right behind you

I know Im only

Something to fall back on

I dont know what makes me think Ive the right

To tell you what is most important in life

But after all I guess I just dont care

And if you need me I will always be there

cause when I just imagine how it will be

Then I guess its something to fall back on

Something to fall back on for me

I need to know youll need me sometime

Everybody needs somebody to fall back on

Fall back on me

Nobodys going nowhere

You can call me anytime

You can fall back on me

You can call on me

Im waiting on you babe

When your world is falling down

And theres no one else around

And youre sitting, waiting by the phone

You can call me and I wont leave you alone
