When I Fall in Love
Alana Conway Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I fall in love
It will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
When I give my heart
It will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you
And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you...

And the moment I can feel that




You feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you...

Overall Meaning

The song "When I Fall in Love" by Alana Conway is a combination of hope and skepticism. The singer explains that when they fall in love, it will either be forever or they will never fall in love again. This is because they live in a "restless world", where love doesn't have much chance to develop before it's ended. The lyrics also imply that many moonlight kisses may seem romantic at the moment, but they don't provide the lasting foundation needed for love to survive.


The singer's hope lies in the fact that when they do fall in love, they will give their heart completely. This is a powerful statement, suggesting that the singer feels deeply enough to make a lifelong commitment. The lyrics make it clear that this commitment will only happen if the other person feels the same way. The phrase "the moment I can feel that you feel that way too" is repeated several times, emphasizing the importance of mutual feelings in a successful relationship. The final line, "Is when I fall in love with you," is a declaration of love that is both simple and profound.


Overall, the song conveys a sense of deep longing for love and commitment, combined with a realistic view of the challenges that stand in the way. It expresses the hope that when two people do fall in love, they will do so with open hearts and a genuine desire to make it work.


Line by Line Meaning

When I fall in love
I am waiting for the moment I am in love


It will be forever
It will last for a lifetime


Or I'll never fall in love
It is all or nothing


In a restless world like this is
Living in a world moving too quickly


Love is ended before it's begun
Relationships end abruptly


And too many moonlight kisses
Too many relationships start with just attraction


Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun
What may seem promising, just disappears


When I give my heart
When I finally fall in love


It will be completely
It will be wholeheartedly


Or I'll never give my heart
It is a choice that comes with vulnerability


And the moment I can feel that
It is a sudden feeling


You feel that way too
When that feeling is returned


Is when I fall in love with you
It is the moment when love becomes real


And the moment I can feel that
It is a sudden feeling


You feel that way too
When that feeling is returned


Is when I fall in love with you...
It is the moment when true love begins
