I Could Fall in Love
Selena Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I could lose my heart tonight
If you don't turn and walk away
'Cause the way I feel I might
Lose control and let you stay

'Cause I could take you in my arms
And never let go

I could fall in love (in love) with you
I could fall in love (in love) with you (baby)

I can only wonder how
Touching you would make me feel
But if I take that chance right now
Tomorrow will you want me still? (baby, will you want me?)

So I should keep this to myself
And never let you know

I could fall in love (in love) with you
(I could fall in love with you)
I could fall in love (in love) with you (baby)

And I know it's not right
And I guess I should try to do what I should do
But I could fall in love, fall in love with you
I could fall in love with you

Siempre estoy soñando en ti
Besando mis labios, acariciando mi piel
Abrazándome con ansias locas
Imaginando que me amas
Como yo podía amar a ti

So I should keep this to myself
And never let you know

I could fall in love (in love) with you
(I could fall in love with you)
I could fall in love (in love) with you (with you baby)

I could fall in love (fall in love)
I could fall in love (fall in love)
With you (you baby)

I could fall, fall in love (in love) with you (I could fall in love with you)

I met Selena when I was 6.I had curly hair and I never liked it.I hated it. I always wanted strait hair.but when I met Selena she told me I had beautiful hair.So I kept my hair like that. so when I found out she died I didn't go to salons anymore because I wanted to remember her. Today my hair is still curly
