Have You Fallen out of Love
Eden Kane Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can feel you pushing me away
Like a lost ship driftin' on the bay
When you touch me, it's just not the same
When you hold me, I feel like a stranger again

Have you fallen out of love with me
Tell the truth now, Babe
Is there someone else who's waiting, waiting for you
Does he say the things you want-a hear
Does he do the things I never did for you
Have you fallen out of love with me for somebody new

Now we're only going through the motions
You've been sailing on another ocean
Ain't no reason to go on pretending
You can tell me, we can still be good friends

Have you fallen out of love with me
Oh, tell the truth now, Babe
Is there someone else who's waiting, waiting for you

Does he say the things you want-a hear
Does he do the things I never did for you
Have you fallen out of love with me for somebody new

Oh Darling, I can see a change in you
You know we just don't seem to communicate
The way we used to do
And I know you tell me you still want me around
But Honey, I know he's waitin' for ya
Somewhere on the other side of town

Have you fallen out of love with me
Oh, tell the truth now, Babe
Is there someone else who's waiting, waiting for you
Does he say the things you want-a hear
Does he do the things I never did for you




Have you fallen out of love with me for somebody new
Have you fallen out of love with me for somebody new

Line by Line Meaning

I can feel you pushing me away
I sense your distance and disinterest


Like a lost ship driftin' on the bay
In aimlessness, my feelings are adrift


When you touch me, it's just not the same
There's a lack of emotional connection in your touch


When you hold me, I feel like a stranger again
Your embrace no longer conveys familiarity or warmth


Have you fallen out of love with me
Do you no longer feel love for me?


Tell the truth now, Babe
Please be honest with me, my dear


Is there someone else who's waiting, waiting for you
Are you involved with someone else?


Does he say the things you want-a hear
Does he speak words that fulfill your desires?


Does he do the things I never did for you
Does he take actions I failed to take with you?


Now we're only going through the motions
Our actions lack true feeling or purpose


You've been sailing on another ocean
Your heart is set on another course


Ain't no reason to go on pretending
Let's stop the act of pretending we're still close


You can tell me, we can still be good friends
You can open up to me, and we can remain friends


Oh Darling, I can see a change in you
My love, I detect a transformation in your emotions


You know we just don't seem to communicate
We're failing to connect through conversation


The way we used to do
Like we did in the past


And I know you tell me you still want me around
You claim to still desire my presence


But Honey, I know he's waitin' for ya
But beloved, I know someone else is vying for your affection


Somewhere on the other side of town
In some other location, away from me


Have you fallen out of love with me for somebody new
Have you fallen out of love with me and in love with someone else?


Have you fallen out of love with me for somebody new
Have you fallen out of love with me and in love with someone else?

I've been cryin' my heart out
Do you love me or do you love me not
If you keep tryin', you'll hear me sighin'
Forg-e-e-et me not

I've been wearin' my mind out
To have you close I'd give all that I've got
The love we tasted, has it been wasted
Forg-e-e-et me not

Ain't I just a lucky guy
Forget me not, forget me not
Woh, I'd lay me down to die
If love is one big lie

There's no need to remind me
Love's afire when the kisses grow hot
So take this ember, then you'll remember
Forg-e-e-et me not

Well, ain't I just a lucky guy
Forget me not, forget me not
Woh, I'd lay me down to die
If love is one big lie

There's no need to remind me
Love's afire when the kisses grow hot
So take this ember, then you'll remember
Forg-e-e-et me not

Forg-e-e-et me not

Forg-e-e-et me not

From that period between rock and roll and the beat groups. England had it's own selection of 'heart-throb' male singers. Eden Kane was just one of them

A wonderful tune. And my God, what charisma he had, such a handsome guy. How cool he looks in this video. Just look how he interporates the song so expressively. Some of today's stars could learn a thing or two from this, how to put themselves across.

Graham Ashdown

Great to hear this again,
I was just 11 when this song came out in 1961,
it still sounds good today some 62 years later.

lynette komidar

Still remember all the lyrics 60 years later.
