John Adams - Rip Cord

Verse
When you leave I never wanna let you go

So forgive me, if I’m holding on too tight

Every time I’ve tried to use this line before

I’ve meant it but the words just don’t come out right

Pre-chorus

Maybe I’ve been falling as I learn to fly

Chorus
I’ve got one hand wrapped around the ripcord

The other is all yours

Don’t be afraid to fall, I promise I won’t let go

And if we need to land, I’ve got one hand on the ripcord

Verse

On the days I’ve lost my way, you’ve found me Like we’re made as two halves of one design. I know that I am prone to overthinking

Oh but darling you never leave my mind

Pre-chorus
Maybe I’ve been falling as I learn to fly

Chorus

I’ve got one hand wrapped around the ripcord

The other is all yours

Don’t be afraid to fall, I promise I won’t let go

And if we need to land, I’ve got one hand on the ripcord

Bridge

If you hold on to me

I’ll be there all the way down. There may be no guarantee

But trust me now I’ve got a plan

Chorus

So if we need to land

Oh if we need to land

I’ve got one hand on the ripcord

If we need to land, I’ve got one hand on the ripcord
