Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So now it's getting late, for those who hesitate
Got no one
But they don't understand and no one hears the sound
It's like a waterfall, it's an illusion
[Verse 2]
Love is all, waterfall, love is what you are
Pulls you in, takes you down, it's a sad affair
But you know as you hold back the power there
Without the friends and lovers, you could never go on living
[Verse 3]
Across the waterfall, that's falling evermore
Down on you
Cascading through the days and flowing on its way
That's how it has to be, just an illusion
[Verse 4]
Love is all, waterfall, love is what you are
Pulls you in, takes you down, it's a sad affair
But you know as you hold back the power there
Without the friends and lovers, you could never go on living
