Could It Be I'm Falling in Love
Jaki Graham Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To turn me on
I just need your body baby
From dusk till dawn
You don't need experience
To turn me out
You just leave it all up to me
I'm gonna show you what it's all about
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss,
Oh oh
You got to not talk dirty, baby
If you want to impress me
You can't be to flirty, mama
I know how to undress me, yeah
I want to be your fantasy
Maybe you could be mine
You just leave it all up to me
We could have a good time
Don't have to be rich
To be my girl
Don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
Yes, oh oh oh
Ah
I think I want to dance, uhh, ooohh
Gotta, gotta, oh
Little girl Wendy's parade
Gotta, gotta, gotta
Women not girls rule my world
I said they rule my world
Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)
Not your shoe size
Maybe we could do the twirl
You don't have to watch Dynasty
To have an attitude
You just leave it all up to me
My love will be your food
Yeah
You don't have to be rich
To be my girl
You don't have to be cool
To rule my world
Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with
I just want your extra time and your
Kiss
Jaki Graham’s Could It Be I'm Falling in Love is a remake of the classic 80’s hit by Prince. The lyrics are playful and bold, as the singer expresses a desire for physical and emotional connection with a potential lover. The opening lines suggest that physical appearance is not the most important thing, as the singer declares that someone does not have to be beautiful to turn them on. They go on to say that experience does not matter either because they will take the lead in showing the lover what it is all about. The repeated refrain of “You just leave it all up to me” insinuates that the singer is confident in their ability to win over the lover and provide them with a good time.
The song does not only focus on physical attraction, as the second verse acknowledges the importance of personality and compatibility. While the lover does not have to be rich or cool, the singer does want their time and attention. The refrain of “Kiss” is repeated throughout the song, adding a sensual element to the overall message.
In the bridge of the song, the singer seems to break away from the theme of physical and emotional attraction and transitions to encouraging the listener to dance. The lines “Women, not girls, rule my world” and “Act your age, mama (not your shoe size)” suggest that the singer is attracted to older and more mature partners. The final verse brings the song back to the original themes, reminding the listener that they do not have to be someone they are not in order to impress the singer, as their love will be enough.

I'd like to dedicate this song to my dearest wife and 30 married years together. We danced to this at the club when we were both 17. Been together through the 80's as girlfriend and boyfriend.
