Falling In Love With You
Bely Basarte Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can′t help falling in love with you
Shall I stay
Would it be a sin, would it be a sin
If I can't help falling in love with you

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand
Take my whole life, too

For I can′t help falling in love with you

Like a river flows
Surely to the sea
Darling, so it goes
Some things are meant to be
Take my hand
Please take my whole life, too




For I can't help falling in love with you
For I can't help falling in love with you

Overall Meaning

Bely Basarte’s cover of Elvis Presley’s “Can’t Help Falling in Love” is a beautiful rendition of a classic love song. The first verse begins with “Wise men say, only fools rush in.” The lyrics suggest that people should take their time with love, but in the chorus, Basarte admits that she cannot help falling in love with someone. She questions whether it would be a sin to stay in love with this person. She then compares the feeling of falling in love to the flow of a river towards the sea. The last few lines of the chorus include a plea for her lover to take her hand and her whole life, as she cannot control her love for them. The final line of the chorus is an affirmation that she cannot help falling in love with this person.


The song is a classic love ballad that speaks to the romantic feelings that often overwhelm people in the early stages of relationships. The lyrics echo the idea that sometimes, love is beyond our control, and we cannot help but fall in love with someone. At the heart of Basarte’s version of the song is the idea that love should be embraced, even if it goes against conventional wisdom. It is the idea that love is stronger than anything else, and it can leave even the wisest person speechless.
