Kris Allen April 14 "Falling Slowly" American Idol Top 7 Performance

Kris Allen performed "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová from the film Once (2007) in the American Idol April 14 (4/14) Performance. Mixed reactions from the judges. Randy said it was pitchy and the song choice was weird because he selected a lesser known song compared to other finalists. Kara, however, thought it was one of Kris Allen's best performance yet.

Falling Slowly by Glen Hansard Lyrics

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


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


Take this sinking boat and point it home
We’ve still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you had a choice
You’ve made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I’ll sing along
