Cheryl Cole Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't tell anyone about the things that we have planned
I won't tell anybody
Won't tell anybody
They want to push me down, they want to see you fall
Won't tell anybody how you turn my world around
I won't tell anyone how your voice is my favourite sound
Won't tell anybody
They want to see us fall, they want to see us fall
Well, I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down
I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down
Don't believe the things you tell yourself so late night and
You are your own worst enemy, you'll never win the fight
Just hold onto me
I'll hold onto you
It's you and me up against the world, it's you and me
Well, I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down
I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of,
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I'll fall into you
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I'll fall into you
Well, I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down
I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down
In βParachute,β Cheryl Cole sings about her love for a person who she doesnβt want anyone else to know about yet. She keeps the relationship close to her chest and wonβt reveal the plans theyβve made or even to whom sheβs fallen in love. Sheβs aware that there are people who want to see them fail, but she won't allow anyone to come between her and her love interest. Coleβs lyrics suggest that she and her love interest are partners in every sense and she doesnβt need anyone else to feel fulfilled in life.
She repeats the refrain βI donβt need a parachute, baby if Iβve got youβ throughout the song, emphasizing that she feels safe and secure with her love interest. The chorus reinforces this idea of security, as she expresses the confidence that her love interest will catch her if she falls. The song ends with her stating that she wonβt fall out of love but instead, fall deeper into the relationship.
