Chapter 6 - Fallin' Upside Down
How had she gotten so fanciful, well actually she knew how and could probably even be able to say when, why and who had done it to her. But the feeling was still new so she was unaccustomed to it sneaking up on her when it did. Just as it had done a few minutes before. She had been listening to the radio doing all those mundane chores everyone hates, laundry, cleaning the bathroom, her bedroom when she first heard the song and it spoke to her.
Oh at first she didn't get it, backwards rain, what was that? But that next verse caught her listening and running to her computer after discovering the title to listen to it again while she read the words. Did she really feel like that? Well she had no idea what it felt like to be falling upside down, but kites and birds flying yeah that she understood. That's how she felt every time he kissed her. Just being around him made her lightheaded, dizzy and feeling out of control. When they made love she felt like she was flying, hurtling toward the oneness he had promised her, and he always made sure they found it.
She thought about the times she had told him love was just a chemical reaction and sex was just a way to relieve tension. He had told her she was wrong. He had said sometimes when it was with the right person it was incredible. He had been right about that too. With one look, the tilt of his head, the brush of his finger, the hint of a smile he could send her rushing toward that need. When he had said he could take her as high as she wanted to go it had not been said in jest either.
So finally after looking at the words and listening to the song a few more times she sent him a text.
When you said you could take me higher you weren't playing around. I want to fly again.
Ten minutes later he was leaning languorously against her door jamb asking "I thought you wanted time by yourself today so you could do all those things you never get to when I'm around."
She pulled him in "I did now I don't" she said as she pulled him into a deep kiss. "Come here I want you to listen to something. I finally found something that explains how I feel when we make love."

This is one of the fun songs that can always put a smile on my face. I hope it put one on yours to.

Fallin' Upside Down
Songwriters: Derek George/John Tirro
There's no gravity up here
It's kind of hard to explain
Every time I'm holding you
It's like backwards rain, yeah
You lift me up like a kite on a string
Like a bird on newfound wings
So high on you, I'm floating and
Flying around
Your love's like fallin' upside down
You've got me so lightheaded
It's a dizzy mood
Spinning uncontrollably
And gaining altitude
You lift me up like a kite on a string
Like a bird on newfound wings
So high on you, I'm floating and
Flying around
Your love's like fallin' upside down
Look at me
Used to be, I could keep my feet
On the ground
When you said you could take
Me higher
You weren't playing around
(You weren't playing around)
You lift me up like a kite on a string
Like a bird on newfound wings
So high on you, I'm floating and
Flying around
Your love's like fallin' upside down
