Can't Help Myself
KENNY & MOE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Wise man say
only fools rush in.
But I can't help
falling in love with you.

Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
If I can't help
falling in love with you.

Like a river flows,
surely to the sea;
darling so it goes,
some things are meant to be.
Take my hand;
take my whole life, too.
For I can't help,
falling in love with you.
Like a river flows,
surely to the sea;
darling so it goes,
some things are meant to be.
Take my hand;
take my whole life, too.
For I can't help,
falling in love with you.





Yes I can't help
falling in love with you.
