Fall in Love
Jawny Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every single day as I'm waking up
The in between time when I'm missing your touch
Seven months in like a bad start-up
I think it's time that I get over it
I left my heart and my wallet
So if you see my name that's why I'm calling
Sent a sober text even when I'm drunk
Oh no

And every day is moving on
But I can't tell myself
That I don't love you anymore
And if it's love, then you let her go
Oh

She goes 'round my head like a cop car
Handcuffs on my heart, I'm a prisoner
Fall in love
I don't wanna fall in love
She goes 'round my head like a merry-go-round
I hate the fact that she'll never know
Fall in love
I don't wanna fall in love

Every single day as I'm waking up
Looking at the side of the bed that you took
Seven months in like a bad start-up, oh
I left my heart and my wallet
So if you see my name that's why I'm calling
Sent a sober text even when I'm drunk
Oh no

And every day is moving on
But I can't tell myself
That I don't love you anymore
And if it's love, then you let her go

She goes 'round my head like a cop car
Handcuffs on my heart, I'm a prisoner
Fall in love
I don't wanna fall in love
She goes 'round my head like a merry-go-round
I hate the fact that she'll never know
Fall in love
I don't wanna fall in love

So if I don't love you anymore
And if it's love, then you let her go

She goes 'round my head like a cop car
Handcuffs on my heart, I'm a prisoner
Fall in love
I don't wanna fall in love, oh

If you see my name that's why I'm calling




Sent a sober text even when I'm drunk (I'm drunk)
Oh no (oh no)

Overall Meaning

In Jawny's song "Fall in Love," the lyrics depict the struggle of moving on from a past relationship. The song captures the singer's daily routine, where every morning as he wakes up, he is reminded of the void left by his lost love. The reference to the "in between time" suggests that he is trapped in a limbo between moving on and yearning for his ex-partner's touch.


The line "seven months in like a bad start-up" implies that the relationship started off on the wrong foot or had underlying issues from the beginning. Despite this, the singer realizes that it is time to let go and get over the pain caused by leaving his heart and wallet with his former lover. He acknowledges that even when acting rationally, such as sending sober texts instead of drunk ones, he still feels the weight of his emotions.


The repeated chorus highlights the lingering presence of his ex-lover in his thoughts. She haunts his mind like a "cop car," symbolizing a feeling of being constantly observed or chased. The reference to "handcuffs on my heart" emphasizes his sense of being trapped and imprisoned by his feelings for her. The singer expresses a reluctance to fall in love again, as he doesn't want to experience the pain and heartache he went through before. He also mentions the frustration of knowing that she will never fully understand the impact she had on him.


Overall, "Fall in Love" portrays the internal struggle of accepting the end of a relationship and the desire to move forward while still being haunted by memories and emotions.

Every single day as I'm waking up
Each and every day, as I rouse from slumber


The in between time when I'm missing your touch
The moments in between, where I long for your caress


Seven months in like a bad start-up
Seven months have passed, akin to a failed business venture


I think it's time that I get over it
I believe it is time to move on


I left my heart and my wallet
I left behind my emotions and my financial stability


So if you see my name that's why I'm calling
So, if my name appears on your phone screen, it's because I am reaching out


Sent a sober text even when I'm drunk
I've sent you a coherent message even when under the influence


Oh no
Expressing dismay or concern


And every day is moving on
Each day continues to progress


But I can't tell myself
Although I cannot convince myself


That I don't love you anymore
That my affection for you has faded


And if it's love, then you let her go
And if this is true love, you will set her free


She goes 'round my head like a cop car
She occupies my thoughts incessantly, like a police vehicle on patrol


Handcuffs on my heart, I'm a prisoner
My heart feels restrained, as if shackled by handcuffs, rendering me captive


Fall in love
Experience the act of falling in love


I don't wanna fall in love
I do not desire to fall in love


She goes 'round my head like a merry-go-round

I despise the reality that she will never be aware


Fall in love
Experience the act of falling in love


I don't wanna fall in love
I do not desire to fall in love


Looking at the side of the bed that you took
Observing the empty space on the bed where you once lay


So if I don't love you anymore
Therefore, if I no longer hold affection for you


If it's love, then you let her go
If this is true love, you will release her


If you see my name that's why I'm calling
If my name appears on your caller ID, it is the reason behind my call


Sent a sober text even when I'm drunk (I'm drunk)
I composed and sent you a coherent message despite being intoxicated


Oh no (oh no)
A repetition of expressing dismay or concern

@MaestroBlight

Sweet flaming hearts, this is beautiful.
The cloudy whip cream and the cherry is, perhaps, that burning passion in JAWNY to actually put a sincere, open heart out there for the world to see.
We see his innocence (at least I do)
and it's always refreshing to see a nice person without any glitz and flim flam.
Some day I would love to be in a recording session with him- brilliant producing!
And writing, performing, etc.
Bravissimo
-Maestro Blight
