Fallin
Colbie Caillat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But I think I may be fallin' for you
Dropping so quickly
Maybe I should keep this to myself
Waiting 'til I know you better
I am trying, not to tell you
But I want to,
And so I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of holding this inside my head
I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you
As I'm standing here
And you hold my hand
Pull me towards you
And we start to dance
All around us
I see nobody
Here in silence
It's just you and me
I am trying not to tell you
But I want to
I'm scared of what you'll say
And so I'm hiding what I'm feeling
But I'm tired of holding this inside my head
I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you
Oh, I just can't take it
My heart is racing
The emotions keep spilling out
I've been spending all my time
Just thinking about ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I've been waiting all my life
And now I found ya
I don't know what to do
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you
I think I'm fallin' for you
I can't stop thinking about it
I want you all around me
And now I just can't hide it
I think I'm fallin' for you
I can't stop thinking about it
I want you all around me
And now I just can't hide it
I think I'm fallin' for you
I'm fallin' for you
Oh
Oh no no
Oh
Oh, I'm fallin' for ya
In Colbie Caillat's song "Fallin' for You," the singer expresses hesitance to confess her feelings of falling in love with someone. She admits to herself that she may be falling for this person, but fears rejection and therefore keeps her emotions hidden. The lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and uncertainty that come with falling in love, and the chorus expresses the singer's confusion and inexperience with these emotions, "I don't know what to do, I think I'm fallin' for you."
The second verse highlights the intensity of the singer's feelings as she admits to spending all her time thinking about this person and feeling the weight of keeping her emotions to herself. However, when the two characters are alone together, dancing, the singer's emotions spill out, and she confesses her feelings. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the singer's feelings of falling for this person, ultimately ending with "I'm fallin' for you," indicating a realization and acceptance of her emotions.
Overall, "Fallin' for You" is a relatable song that delves into the complexities of emotions that come with falling in love. The lyrics perfectly capture the uncertainty, vulnerability, and exhilaration that someone can feel when they are falling in love.

But I think I may be fallin' for you
But I feel like I am starting to develop feelings for you
Dropping so quickly
My emotions are developing rapidly
Maybe I should keep this to myself
Perhaps I should keep this a secret for now
Waiting 'til I know you better
I want to get to know you better before I reveal my feelings
I am trying, not to tell you
I am trying to resist telling you how I feel
But I want to,
Even though I am trying not to, I want to tell you how I feel
I'm scared of what you'll say
I am afraid of your reaction if I tell you how I feel
And so I'm hiding what I'm feeling
I am keeping my feelings a secret

As you hold my hand
Pull me towards you
When you pull me closer to you
And we start to dance
And we begin to dance together
All around us
The whole world fades away
I see nobody
I only see you
Here in silence
As we stand in silence together
It's just you and me
It feels like it's just you and me in the world
Oh, I just can't take it
My emotions are overwhelming and I can't handle it
My heart is racing
My heart is beating fast due to the excitement and nervousness I feel
The emotions keep spilling out
I can't help but express my feelings
I want you all around me
I want to be near you all the time
And now I just can't hide it
And now I can no longer keep my feelings hidden
Oh no no
This is not what I had planned for or expected
Oh, I'm fallin' for ya
And now I realize I am really starting to fall in love with you
I'm fallin' for you
I am falling in love with you

I love this video. It so relates to me and my husband. He wasn’t my type and wasn’t the tough or handsome man. A little nerdy and silly, completely opposite of what I typically date but turns out to be the best man and perfect husband. I thank god everyday for bringing him into my life.
@beastmode2385

Nice guys finish last. Girls get used by Chad's, until they finally want some stability with Timmy's and Tommy's.
@dawholesom3728
