I Can't Believe That You're in Love With Me
Dean Martin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your eyes are blue your kisses too
I never knew what they could do
I can't believe that you're in love with me
You're telling everyone I know
I'm on your mind each place you go
They can't believe that you're in love with me
I have always placed you far above me
I just can't imagine that you love me
And after all is said and done
To think that I'm the lucky one
I can't believe that you're in love with me
I have always placed you far above me
I just can't imagine that you love me
And after all is said and done
To think that I'm the lucky one
I can't believe that you're in love




Can't believe that you're in love
Can't believe that you're in love with me

Overall Meaning

The song I Can't Believe That You're in Love With Me, originally a popular jazz standard from 1926, talks about the singer's disbelief that the person he has always held in high regard is now in love with him. The lyrics describe the striking blue eyes and kisses of the person and how they are telling everyone about their love for the singer. The singer, in return, cannot believe that this person is actually in love with him. The chorus repeats this disbelief, reinforcing the idea that this sudden love is too good to be true.


The song's lyrics highlight a relatable feeling of insecurity and disbelief that stems from the fear of losing a relationship once it has been gained. The song's tempo is upbeat and rhythmic, masking the emotional intensity of the lyrics and giving it a playful, happy-go-lucky feel. The song's light heartedness and its upbeat melody contrast the singer's overwhelming emotions of disbelief, reminding the listener of the incongruity that can exist between the image we project outwardly and the feelings we harbor internally.
