When I Fall In Love
Kevin Covais Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart

In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses

Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When i give my heart it will be completely
Or i'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love with you.

That moment of connection is so powerful that it brings the singer to the point of no return. He is fully committed and ready to give his heart completely.
