When I Fall In Love
Peabo Bryson/Celine Dion Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
In a restless world
Like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
When I give my heart
It will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
(Oh let me give my heart)
And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way too (I feel that way too)
Is when I'll fall in love (I fall in love)
With you
When I fall in love
It will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love
Oh I'll never never fall in love
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 (I'll never give) my heart
(Oh I'll never give my heart)
And the moment I can feel that
You feel that way too
Is when I'll fall in love
When I fall in love
When I fall in love with you
Peabo Bryson and Celine Dion's timeless classic "When I Fall in Love" is a song about the uncertainty of love in a restless world. The song talks about how love can end before it begins, and how moonlight kisses can fade away in the warmth of the sun. It speaks to the importance of finding someone who feels the same way about love as you do before you offer your heart fully. The lyrics convey that when they fall in love, it will be forever, or they will never fall in love at all. It is a song about taking chances and offering your heart to someone only when you are sure that they will treat it with care.
The lyrics address the idea of settling for less than true love, cautioning against getting too caught up in the moment without considering the long-term effects. The song encourages listeners to hold out for someone who reciprocates their love and who will cherish their heart always. It is a reminder that finding true love is a rare and special thing and must be treated with the utmost care.
Overall, the song expresses the need for vulnerability in order to experience one of the greatest gifts of life- true love. It speaks to the importance of taking a chance, no matter how daunting it may seem, and fully embracing love when it comes into one's life.
