Why not fall in love with mee ohh ohh
You been followin me
Cause You been followin mee ohh ohh
You could fall in love with me
Why not fall in love with mee ohh ohh
The song "Fallin'" by C. Ellis talks about the experience of discovering someone on social media, and slowly developing feelings for them. The first verse begins with the artist scrolling through pages when he gets a notification from someone that catches his attention. The person is not basic, and the artist decides to follow her back. He admits that his eyes might need lasik because he can't believe she isn't jaded like the other women he's met before. She stands out to him, and he likes that. The chorus repeats that this woman has been following him and suggests that she could fall in love with him.
In the second verse, the artist acknowledges that other women in his likes have tried to play him before, but he recognizes that the woman he's interested in is different. She is supportive, and he thinks she could save him. He likes that she only snaps a particular part of herself and that she is juicy, like the late rapper Notorious B.I.G. He will do anything to be with her, even if that means just "putting it in the air" (presumably smoking together).
The pre-chorus and chorus repeat throughout the song, emphasizing the artist's interest in this woman he's just discovered on social media.
Overall, "Fallin'" is a laid-back, chill R&B track that captures the experience of discovering someone new and slowly developing feelings for them through social media.
