Falling in Love
McFly/小飞侠 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everyday feels like a Monday
There is no escaping from the heartache
Now I wanna put it back together
'Cause it's always better late then never

Wishin' I could be in California
I wanna tell you when I call you
I could've fallen in love
I wish I'd fallen in love

Out of our minds and out of time
Wishin' I could be with you
And to share the view
We could've fallen in love

Waking up to people talking
And it's getting later every morning
That I realize it's nearly midday
And I've wasted half my life
To throw it away saying

Everyday should be a new day
To make you smile and find a new way
Of falling in love
I could have fallen in love

Out of our minds, out of time
Wishin' I could be with you to share the view
Oh, we could've fallen in love
Oh, we could've fallen in love

I'm sick of waiting
I can't take it, gotta tell ya
I'm sick of waiting
I can't take it, gotta tell ya

I can't take another night on my own
So I take a breath and then I pick up the phone
She said, she said, she said

We could have fallen in love
Oh, we could've fallen in love
Oh, we could've fallen in love
Yeah, we could've fallen in love





Oh, we could've fallen in love
I wish I'd fallen in love

The world would be a lonely place
Without the one that puts a smile on your face
So hold me till the sun burns out
I won't be lonely when I'm down

'Cause I've got you to make me feel stronger
When the days are rough and an hour seems much longer

I never doubted you at all
The stars collide, will you stand by and watch them fall?
So hold me till the sky is clear
And whisper words of love right into my ear

'Cause I've got you to make me feel stronger
When the days are rough and an hour seems much longer
Yeah but I've got you, oh to make me feel better
When the nights are long they'll be easier together

Looking in your eyes, hoping they won't cry
And even if they do, I'll be in bed so close to you
To hold you through the night and you'll be unaware
But if you need me I'll be there

Yeah, I've got you, oh to make me feel stronger
When the days are rough and an hour seems much longer
Yeah and I've got you to make me feel better
When the nights are long they'll be easier together
Yeah but I've got you

The movie "Just My Luck" was really under rated. Lindsay Lohan, Chris Pine, cast members and Mc Fly were really good. Love this upbeat love song. If I ever get my do-over wedding; I'm playing this song.
