Falling in Love
Jennifer Rush Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't know why, we said goodbye.
I thought that love was meant to last, baby.

But I kept my faith, ‘cause I knew one day.
I'd be ready to try again.

Then you turned my head around.
Touching me, the very heart of me.

Can it be I'm falling in love again.
Never thought I would,
Never thought I could, no.
Can it be I'm falling in love again.
I made it through the heartache,
And now it's time to fall in love again.

Like a dream, you came to me.
When you're beside me, love takes over.
You set me free, by loving me.
You picked me up when I was down.

Now you're all I'm living for,
You're holding the key to my heart.

Can it be I'm falling in love again.
Never thought I would,
Never thought I could, no.
Can it be I'm falling in love again.
I made it through the heartache,
And now it's time to fall in love again.

Sometimes the love we leave behind,
Seems so hard to forget,
Don't want to say goodbye.
But now you're a part of me.
You came into my life and now,
It's time for me to fall in love again.

Can it be I'm falling in love again.
Never thought I would,
Never thought I could, no.
Can it be I'm falling in love again.
I made it through the heartache,
And now it's time to fall in love again.

Fall in love again,
Never thought I would,




Never thought I could, no.
Can it be I'm falling in love again…
