Let's Fall In Love
Ann Hampton Callaway Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've got a feeling
Its a feeling
I'm concealing
I dont know why.
It's just a mental, incidental, sentimental
Alibi
But I adore you
So strong for you
Why go on stalling
I am falling
Love is calling
Why be shy?
Let's fall in love
Why shouldn't we
Fall in love
Our hearts were made of it
Lets take a chance
Why be afraid of it
Lets close our eyes
And make our own paradise
Little we know of it
Still we can try
To make a go of it
We might have been meant for each other
To be or not to be let our hearts
Discover
Lets fall in love
Why shouldnt we fall in love
Now is the time for it
While we are young
Lets fall in love
We might have been meant for each other
To be or not to be
Let our hearts discover
Lets fall in love
Why shouldn't we
Fall in love
Now is the time for it
While we are young
Now is the time for it
While we are young




Now is the time for it
Lets fall in love
