Rick Koen - Floor From Underground EP [RBR001]

‘Though I'm falling deeper and deeper, I'm not afraid
That I'll be hurt by this love that we've made
Because I'm falling into your love's bright light
That lifts me up and feels so right.
At the end of some falls there's heartache and pain.
But at the end of my fall, there's your love to gain.
So deeper and deeper I'll forever fall
Into your arms and your love's sweet call.`
