Falling
Kylie Minogue Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But never got together
I never felt the pressure 'til now
There's something in the air
I'm here and you're just there
I can't pretend that I don't care
Yeah, one day I might get it right
Yeah, caution, caution, amber lights
Stuck, can't get off my mind
I don't know how, I don't know where
But we're becoming more than friends
Getting closer to the edge
Stop me from falling
Should have seen the warning signs
Now we're running out of time
Kinda wanna cross the line
Stop me from falling
For you
For you, stop me from falling
For you
For you, stop me from falling
One risk from lying on your shoulder
When I was feeling colder
And now I can't get over
One kiss, a dangerous situation
I'm lost in hesitation
My heart's a little shaking
Yeah, one day I might get it right
Am I ready for tonight?
Yeah, caution, caution, amber lights
Stuck, can't get you off my mind
I don't know how, I don't know where
But we're becoming more than friends
Getting closer to the edge
Stop me from falling
Should have seen the warning signs
Now we're running out of time
Kinda wanna cross the line
Stop me from falling
For you
For you, stop me from falling
For you
For you, stop me from falling
I don't know how, I don't know where
But we're becoming more than friends
Getting closer to the edge
Stop me from falling
Should have seen the warning signs
Now we're running out of time
Kinda wanna cross the line
Stop me from falling
For you
For you, stop me from falling
For you
For you, stop me from falling
The song "Stop Me From Falling" by Kylie Minogue is about two people who have been close for a long time but have never taken the risk of becoming romantic partners before. Now, there is something in the air that is causing Kylie to have feelings for this person and she can't ignore them. She struggles with the fact that she doesn't know how to take the next step and worries that she might not be ready for tonight. The underlying theme is the desire to be loved and protected from falling and the fear of crossing the line and ruining a good friendship.
Kylie's lyrics show that she is aware of the warning signs that this person might not share the same feelings as she does. However, despite this, she can't help but feel drawn to them. The lyrics embody the rollercoaster of emotions that come with the decision to make a move, igniting feelings of hesitation, nervousness, and excitement all at once. Throughout the song, Kylie repeats the chorus line "stop me from falling" as a plea to this person to either take a chance on her or protect her from her emotions.

For the people criticizing her looks at 50 years old .. Well , She looks amazing . She almost died of Cancer , She can not have children due to side effects of the cancer . She is a Survivor .. So, what if she got work done? . Is her money and body . Hating Kylie Minogue is not gonna improve your day or your bitterness
@cosulbunicii9362

She looks amazing.
@Petros86Gr
She has done nothing apart from botox. Never plastic surgery. Common 30 years guys do botox, what's wrong with that??
