Lyrics: The Fall

I've been good-time drunk

Enough to be bad-time sober

Broke a map dot's heart when it disappeared over my shoulder

I've been headstrong, riding dead end wrong

Good with God, but I dropped the ball

Spend my whole life holding on

But even when I feel lost

The ride was worth the fall

The fall was worth the smiles

The smiles were worth the tears

The tears were worth the miles

Miles were worth the pain

Pain was worth it all

It's all worth this life

The life is worth the ride

The ride is worth the fall

Had some "nowhere near it"s

And some "almost was"s

Left some mommas in tears

And some daddy's still cussin'

'Cause what I should done and what could been

Even knowin' now what I didn't know, then I'd climb back on again

The ride was worth the fall

The fall was worth the smiles

The smiles were worth the tears

The tears were worth the miles

Miles were worth the pain

Pain was worth it all

It's all worth this life

The life is worth the ride

The ride is worth the fall

The ride is worth the fall

The fall was worth the smiles

The smiles were worth the tears

The tears were worth the miles

Miles were worth the pain

Pain was worth it all

It's all worth this life

The life is worth the ride

The ride is worth the fall
