Falling Slowly

I rented Once today. Two people meet on the streets of Dublin and it was kismet. Their paths only intersect briefly, which was rather bittersweet. The film is full of so much wonderful music. I love the song Falling Slowly from the film. It won Best Original song at the 2008 Academy Awards



I don't know you
But I want you
All the more for that
Words fall through me
And always fool me
And I can't react
And games that never amount
To more than they're meant
Will play themselves out

Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You've made it now

Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won
