Nalle assisted Troccoli in her career, helping the young artist record demos which would be given to Michael Blanton and Dan Harrell (Amy Grant's brother-in-law), who formed the Reunion label to start her career in 1982 with Stubborn Love, A second album, Heart and Soul, was released in 1984 and gave her first Grammy nomination a year later, followed by Images in 1986. Troccoli also provided backing vocal for Taylor Dayne's song "I'll Be Your Shelter" in 1989/1990.
Miss Troccoli moved at age three and was raised in the East Islip community in Long Island, and graduated from East Islip High School, where as a senior, fellow classmates included fellow CCM artist Margaret Becker (a junior) and three-sport star Norman Esiason, Jr, a freshman. At 15, she lost her father to colon cancer. She also lost her mother to breast cancer in 1991, shortly before her album, Pure Attraction, hit the shelves with her number one mainstream hit, "Everything Changes". Before this album came out, she had taken a five year break from the music world to do some "soul searching" and deal with her bulimia.
After her mother's death, she paired with Reunion again in 1991 with Pure Attraction, which launched her on the national charts was "Everything Changes." But ironically, it was "Help Myself To You" which became her first #1 hit in her ten-year career, and began a string of GMA Music Awards nominations, including numerous attempts at Female Vocalist.
Numerous hit songs came afterwards, including 1994's "My Life Is in Your Hands", a song written with Bill Montvilo which defined her career, and inspired the eponymous devotional book, written in 1997, and 1995's "Go Light Your World," which gave us the rise of writer Chris Rice, and was used for charity efforts that year.
In 1996, Troccoli was featured on the Beach Boys' now out-of-print album "Stars and Stripes Vol. 1" singing lead vocals on a cover of their 1969 song "I Can Hear Music" (itself a cover of a Phil Spector song). The Beach Boys sing on the track as well, providing harmonies and backing vocals.
Fallin'
Kathy Troccoli Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I got a heart that beats
To a new kind of groove
And every night now
Oh, I can hardly sleep
And it's all 'cause of you
Don't you know
I don't find myself
Just thinking about your love
Don't you know
I wanna stay right here in it
Oh, can it really be
You and me, baby
Fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you
Yes, I'm fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you
Hold me gently
Or you can hold me tight
Just don't let me go
Like a fire
My love is burning high
And I keep watchin' it grow
Doesn't take too much
To move me a little
All you have to do
Is look at me with those eyes
I get spun around
And lost in the middle
Of a dream come true
Me and you, baby
Fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you
Yes, I'm fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you
When I'm down
Your voice can always soothe my soul
Without a sound
You touch me and you let me know
That you love me
(Fall, fall, fallin')
(Yes, I'm fallin')
I'm fallin', yeah, I'm fallin'
I keep fallin' for you
I'm fallin', yeah, I'm fallin'
It's like a dream come true
Me and you, baby
Fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you
Yes, I'm fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you
Fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you
Yes, I'm fall, fall, fallin'
Deeper in love
Deeper in love with you...

And lost in the middle
And get happily lost in the moment
Of a dream come true
Of a beautiful moment that seems unreal
When I'm down
When I feel sad
Your voice can always soothe my soul
The sound of your voice can always calm me down
Without a sound
Without even talking
You touch me and you let me know
Your touch lets me know how much you love me
That you love me
That you have strong feelings of love for me
It's like a dream come true
It feels like this love isn't real
I keep fallin' for you
I keep falling deeper in love with you

KT you always get to the heart of the matter. That is one of your giftings.
Praying God gets more and more of your heart everyday. While I always want to get lost in your music God always seems to find me in there and says now that I have your attention!
Keep being faithful to God and to yourself.
That is the ultimate praise to our King.
The older we get the sweeter praising Him is!!!
