When I First Laid Eyes On You
Well, The Night Just Felt So Odd
You Looked At Me And The Stars Lined Up
So I Thought I'd Heard From God
And I Gave Him My Best Shot

Loving You Was Like Throwing A Lasso Around A Tornado
I Tried To Hold On To You
Took A Ride On A Tilt-a-whirl That Sits On Top Of The World
Man, I Thought I Could Show You
I've Always Been Afraid Of Flying
But You Can't Blame A Girl For Trying

Felt Like A Pearl When I Was Holding Your Hand
So Precious I Forgot
You Could Have Any Girl But I Only Wanted One Man
And You Were Everything I'm Not
Still I Gave It My Best Shot

Loving You Was Like Throwing A Lasso Around A Tornado
I Tried To Hold On To You
Took A Turn On A High Trapeze Swinging Over The Deep
I Thought I Could Show You
I've Always Been Afraid Of Flying
But You Can't Blame A Girl For Trying

Like A Vine Bends A Tree To The Ground
I Won't Hold You Down
I Tried To Climb Just As High
But I Found All The Clouds Touch The Ground
In This Small Town

Took A Ride On A High Trapeze Swinging Over The Deep
I Thought I Could Show You
That I've Always Been Afraid Of Flying
But You Can't Blame A Girl For Trying
No, You Can't Blame A Girl
