Lasso

Written by Kimberly Perry, Reid Perry, Neil Perry, Brian Henningsen, Clara Henningsen, Aaron Henningsen

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 it my best shot


Loving you was like throwing a lasso
around a tornado
I tried to hold on to
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
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
