Fall For You
Julia Westlin Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where'd you go
Does anyone know
In your sleep, you say so many things
In between life and dreams
Nothing ever is what it seems

I see you standing by her side
I'm petrified cause I can read between the lines
But did you even care at all
The moment that you woke up
From the distance that we walked
You know I'll take the fall for you...

Where'd they go does anyone show
Every time I close my eyes I see
In between life and dreams
Through your eyes, you say the things you feel

I don't know where to go
In my head, it's all a mess you see
But they say it will pass and fade away
But no one knows just what it means to me
To see you standing by her side
I'm petrified because I can read between the lines
But did you even care at all
The moment that you woke up
From the distance that we walked

You know I'll take the fall
I dive until the bottom of the ocean of my heart
I won't do you harm
You know it isn't over until we said it all
You know it isn't over until we break the fault
You know I'll take the fall
You know I'll take the fall

I dive until the bottom of the ocean of my heart
I won't do you harm
You know it isn't over until we said it all




You know it isn't over until we break the fault
You know I'll take the fall

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Julia Westlin's song Fall For You tell the story of unrequited love and heartbreak. The singer is struggling with her emotions towards someone who appears to be in a relationship with another person. The first verse asks where they went, implying a sense of confusion and loss. The use of the line "In your sleep, you say so many things" suggests that the singer is intimately connected to this person but is only able to express her desires through dreams. The line "Nothing ever is what it seems" emphasizes the idea that things aren't always as they appear, and the singer is struggling to come to terms with this.


The second verse continues with the theme of confusion and uncertainty, with the singer asking if anyone knows where they went. The repetition of "In between life and dreams" adds to the dreamlike, otherworldly quality of the song. The singer is struggling to make sense of her feelings and create a tangible reality from them, unable to cope with the fact that the person she desires is with someone else. The lines "But they say it will pass and fade away / But no one knows just what it means to me" show that the singer is aware that time may heal her heartbreak, but only she truly understands the depth of her emotions. The lyric "You know I'll take the fall" is a selfless declaration of love, implying that the singer is willing to put herself in harm's way for the sake of her unrequited love.


Overall, Fall For You is a haunting and poignant ballad about the pain of longing and despair. The lyrics emphasize the confusion and sense of heartbreak that come with unrequited love, and Julia Westlin's ethereal vocals add to the sense of otherworldliness and dreamlike quality of the song.

@@JoeHacobian Dear Joe, you are absolutely correct. She also plays the piano and is an incredible artist. Her voice reminds of Enya, who I also love. What I love about Julia is she sings from her heart and soul. It comes from deep inside and what we hear is exactly how she feels and what comes out is exactly how it is supposed to be. Sweet angel indeed. Rick
