브라이언(Brian Joo) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing ever happens in this town
It’s the same old thing when we go out
A new place to hang with the same crowd
I looked up when you came and sat down
Now I’m here with you and I’m admiring the view
And I don’t know what to do because
I’m falling into something real and I can’t stop me
I’m knocking over everything and you just caught me
From start to finish I promise I’m in this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
From start to finish I promise I’ll mend this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
Always said true love never happens
A little push caused this chain reaction.
I never thought you’d be my distraction
I admit girl you got me crashing
Now I’m here with you and I’m admiring the view
I hope you never (ever) never (ever) cut me loose
And I don’t know what to do because
I’m falling into something real and I can’t stop me
I’m knocking over everything and you just caught me
From start to finish I promise I’m in this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
From start to finish I promise I’ll mend this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
When it all comes down you gon’ have my back
When the last one falls baby we got that
You’re saying… ooh ooh hot hot Oooh oooh hot hot
Keep saying hot hot ooh ooh hot hot
When it all comes down you gon’ have my back
When the last one falls baby we got that
Keep saying ooh ooh Keep saying ooh ooh
Keeping saying ooh ooh Keep saying
I’m falling like a domino
I’m falling into something real and I can’t stop me
I’m knocking over everything and you just caught me
From start to finish I promise I’m in this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
From start to finish I promise I’ll mend this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
I’m falling into something real and I can’t stop me
I’m knocking over everything and you just caught me
From start to finish I promise I’m in this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
From start to finish I promise I’ll mend this
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino

Nothing ever happens in this town
Life is mundane and uneventful in this place
It’s the same old thing when we go out
Every time we go out, we end up doing the same things
A new place to hang with the same crowd
We try going to new places but always end up with the same group of people
I looked up when you came and sat down
I noticed you when you sat down next to me
Now I’m here with you and I’m admiring the view
I am enjoying being with you and appreciating your company
I hope you never (ever) never (ever) cut me loose
I hope you never leave me or break things off between us
And I don’t know what to do because
I feel lost and unsure of how to handle these emotions
I’m falling into something real and I can’t stop me
I am falling in love and cannot control my feelings
I’m knocking over everything and you just caught me
My emotions are highly intense and I feel like I'm losing control but you're there to steady me
From start to finish I promise I’m in this
I am committed to this relationship and will see it through to the end
Just wanna let you know, yo I’m falling like a domino
I am expressing my love for you and falling deeply and quickly for you
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
I feel like I am falling rapidly and uncontrollably like a row of dominoes
Always said true love never happens
I used to believe that true love was impossible
A little push caused this chain reaction.
One small action from you caused a huge response in my emotions
I never thought you’d be my distraction
You were not part of my plan, but now you have caught my attention and focus
I admit girl you got me crashing
I confess that you have caused me to lose control and fall for you
When it all comes down you gon’ have my back
In tough times, you will support and stand by me
When the last one falls baby we got that
No matter what happens, we will have each other's backs until the end
Keep saying… ooh ooh hot hot Oooh oooh hot hot
We are constantly reinforcing our love and attraction for each other
I’m falling into something real and I can’t stop me
I am fully immersed in this relationship and cannot resist or stop my feelings
(Falling, falling, falling) Just like a domino
I am gradually losing control like a row of falling dominoes
From start to finish I promise I’ll mend this
I will work to fix any problems that arise and stick with this relationship until the end
