When I Fall in Love
Sol Raye 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 Its Begun
And Too Many Moonlight Kisses
Seem To Cool In The Warmth Of The Sun.
It Will Be Completely
Or I'll Never Give My Heart (Oo 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'll Fall In Love)
(Both)
With You
(Both)It Will Be Forever
When I Fall In Love,
Or I'll Never Fall In Love
(Oo I'll Never Never Fall In Love)
In A Restless World Like This Is
Love Is Ended Before Its Begun
And Too Many Moonlight Kisses
Seem To Cool In The Warmth Of The Sun
(Both)
When I Give My Heart,
It Will Be Completely
Or I'll Never Give (I'll Never Give)
My Heart (Oo 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'll Fall In Love
When I'll Fall In Love With You.
The song "When I Fall In Love" by Sol Raye is a beautiful ballad about the idea of falling in love. The song speaks of a desire for a love that will last forever or not at all. The lyrics suggest that in a busy world where love often fizzles out before it even gets off the ground, the singer is hesitant to give their heart away unless they know that the other person truly feels the same way. The song starts off with the line "When I fall in love, it will be forever, or I'll never fall in love". This line sets the tone for the rest of the song, suggesting that the moment when the singer falls in love will be a pivotal moment in their life, and they will not take it lightly.
The second verse of the song talks about the fickle nature of love in a world where people move quickly from one thing to another. The line "love is ended before it's begun" speaks to the idea that many people today seem to give up on love before giving it a real chance. The next line "and too many moonlight kisses seem to cool in the warmth of the sun" is a beautiful image that captures the fleeting nature of love in the face of reality. The third verse of the song speaks to the idea that when the singer does finally fall in love, it will be with all their heart. The line "when I give my heart, it will be completely" suggests that the singer will hold nothing back in their quest for true love.
