The summer rain falls down and I can't make it stop
I've always like the cold more than I've liked you hot
But I was never meant to swim
Dear Noah, build a boat, this flood'll take me, take me down and in

Don't underestimate this empty lot
Empty heads will con and commit fraud
Empty hearts like me will tell you truth, I'll tell you straight
Holden Caulfield always caught your lies

Will you catch me if I fall off of the river bend,
My love, my love
Catch me if I fall right off this bridge
Will you catch me if I fall off of this ledge again,
my love my love
Catch me if I fall right off this cliff?

The autumn heat comes back and I can't seem to stop
I like you better after we've argued and fought
But I was never all that nice
Dear Moses, give me rules, this sin'll take me, freeze me up in ice

Don't underestimate this empty kiss
A cheek is only lips I've seemed to miss
Cheek is all I'll give you, the rest you'll have to steal
Holden Caulfield's the only thing that's real

Will you catch me if I fall off of the river bend,
My love, my love
Catch me if I fall right off this bridge
Will you catch me if I fall off of this ledge again,
My love, my love
Catch me if I fall right off this cliff?

Will you catch me if I fall off of the center stage,
My love, my love
Catch me if I run right through the rye
Will you catch me if I fall into a bitter rage,
My love, my love
Catch me or don't catch me I'll be fine

Will you catch me if I fall in love with you again,
My love, my love
Catch me if I run and pass you by?
Will you catch me if I fall for all these other men,
My love, my love
My darling, lover, catcher in the rye.
